Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has been discharged from a Washington-area hospital after undergoing treatment for a concussion suffered last week, but he will continue inpatient care at a rehabilitation facility before returning home, his spokesman said.
“Leader McConnell’s concussion recovery is proceeding well and the Leader was discharged from the hospital today,” the spokesman, David Popp, said in a statement on Monday. “At the advice of his physician, the next step will be a period of physical therapy at an inpatient rehabilitation facility before he returns home.”
