Unless you take control over your situation you are in a "no-win" situation.
You should be having meetings with the Nursing home admin discussing what comes next and what can be done to help you.
if you get into this situation again in the very near future you will find out that your Medicare benefits have expired and you'll have no where to go. Medicare will no pay for repeated Nursing home stays.
Did you get a wheelchair? (It should be covered under Medicare)
Are you eligible for in-home care? (You should discuss with the Nursing Home the benefits of having them apply for Medicaid for you. Medicaid will pay more for services than medicare)
Have you seen or talked to a Social Worker? If so, what did you discuss? What benefits are available to you from you local city/state governments?
Are you currently receiving any rehabilitation (physical and occupational therapy services)?
