Well I made it to the hospital here in FL and found out the doctor decided to send her to Rehabilitation for two or more,it depends upon her. She is fighting against it. I explained to my mom it's for her own good and after that she is going to need home health to come in and assist her with her every day care. Because she are not able to bathe herself properly and take her meds rights. Definitely can't clean her house. And fighting with the other siblings is not working, because they don't have the patience for her.

Since your mom can no longer "bathe herself properly" "take her meds right" and "can't clean her house", why don't you instead since you're now in FL, find mom the right assisted living facility, that she can be discharged to when she's stronger, and where she'll get all the help she now requires?
Sounds a whole lot easier than having to set up 24/7 home care, and a whole lot less expensive too.
Plus your impatient siblings won't have to put up with her or her care.
It's a win win all the way around.

Rehab generally lasts for 20 days. Yes it's a good idea if mom will be compliant, and if that's what you are asking.
