My Mother Is 91 And Was Taken To The ER

My mother is 91 and was taken to the ER after falling on Monday. She had x-rays and a cat scan that showed she had two fractures to her pelvis and a fractured tailbone. Since they said nothing could be done surgically, they said she should have six weeks of complete bed rest. For that, she was transported to a nursing home. Today, the nursing home called and wanted her regular clothes for physical therapy!! Yesterday, they had done upper body therapy which was great but I'm concerned about this latest request. Can you tell me what the normal recommendation would be for these fractures?
