Deeming of Income and Resources. If your boyfriend does not qualify for SSI, his income and resources may reduce your benefits. Because you are living in the same household, Social Security deems some of his income and resources as for your benefit.
Recovery in the Hospital. Patients spend an average of two to five days in the hospital following bariatric surgery, or longer if complications develop. Patients who undergo laparoscopic bariatric surgery usually have a shorter hospital stay. When you return to your hospital room after surgery, you will be closely monitored by your nurses. Along with periodic monitoring of your vital signs â blood pressure, pulse, temperature and respiration â your nurses will encourage and help you to perform deep breathing, coughing, leg movement exercises and to get out of bed.
The big day is coming and its time to pack for your hospital stay. How Long Will I Stay In The Hospital? Most procedures require a single overnight stay in the hospital. Gastric bypass surgery and gastric sleeve surgery almost always require an overnight stay. Occasionally, gastric banding procedures (Lap Band and Realize Band) do not require an overnight stay in the hospital. Even though you will likely only spend one night in the hospital, you should prepare for two nights.
