McConnell was taken to the hospital after the collapse and given treatment for a small bone fracture and concussion.<\/p>\n<p>On March 13, after being released from the hospital, he followed his doctor&#8217;s advice and went to a different option for acute physical treatment.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement on Saturday, McConnell said,&#8221; I want to sincerely thank everyone for all the variety desires.&#8221; I&#8217;m relieved to be home after finishing acute physical rehabilitation earlier today.<\/p>\n<p>It was the first announcement McConnell had made since falling.<\/p>\n<p>He continued,&#8221; I&#8217;m going to take the advice of my physical therapists and spend the next few days working from home for Kentuckians and the Republican Conference. I keep in touch with both my people and my Senate associates frequently. I&#8217;m eager to visit the Senate again suddenly in woman.<\/p>\n<p>McConnell, who earlier this year was named the longest-serving GOP president in the Senate, didn&#8217;t say when he would return to the room.<\/p>\n<p>He had a conversation with his management team earlier this year. Sens. John Thune and John Cornyn, both of Texas, claimed to have spoken to McConnell over the telephone.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2163197\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><\/noscript>In this file photo, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Senator John Barrasso of Wyoming, Sen.
