In hospital for almost 8 days. She is on Vicodin and Tylenol, starting to eat a bit. But is still in pain on her head and neck. Refuses to do PT and OT. She will need Rehab when they release her but facility wont take her unless she tries. What can I do? I have been telling her everything. This is not my mom, she is usually very active and social.

It could also take awhile for her to recover from her injury. Takes longer when you're older too.
Can you have PT come to her ALF?
And with your Mom being 91 [as per your profile] plus having Alzheimer's/Dementia, this isn't easy for your Mom as hard falls can be very scary, and there is that fear that it would happen again.
Hope your Mom starts feeling better from the injury.
