You dont give much Hx about your mothers hip so its kind of hard to say.

I do know people who have replacement hips can dislocate them pretty easily shortly after replacement by breaking the ninety degree angle when bending over or sitting down.

The best advice I could give at this point would be to encourage your mother to participate in her PT to the letter and do exactly as the MD orders.

Afterward I would make an educated guess that she will need to continue some form of strength training to avoid further dislocations, and also be seen by OT for some education with her ADLs.

I wish the best for your mother-
