Los Angeles ( CNN ) -- Charlie Sheen plans to return to work on his hit sitcom `` Two and a Half Men '' by the end of February , his representative said Thursday . CBS placed the show on `` production hiatus '' after the actor began rehab treatments in the wake of an emergency hospital visit last week . `` My understanding is that he will be back on the set at the end of February , '' Sheen representative Stan Rosenfield said . The network ordered additional episodes of the sitcom `` Rules of Engagement '' to fill any gap in their Monday night schedule , but if Sheen returns as expected they may not be needed . Sheen issued a written statement Wednesday thanking his fellow cast members , the show 's crew and network executives for their support . It did not directly address the incident . `` I have a lot of work to do to be able to return the support I have received from so many people , '' Sheen said in a statement . `` Like Errol Flynn , who had to put down his sword on occasion , I just want to say , 'thank you , ' '' Sheen said . Sheen was `` very , very intoxicated , also apparently in a lot of pain '' last Thursday morning , according to a 911 call from a doctor who had just talked to the actor . `` Kind of weird , the phone call I received , '' Dr. Paul Nassif told the Los Angeles Fire Department dispatcher in the recorded call , which was released by the fire department Wednesday . Porn actress Kacey Jordan has told media outlets that a two-day party preceded Sheen 's collapse . Paramedics went to Sheen 's Los Angeles home and then took him by ambulance to a hospital , where he spent several hours . Sheen 's representative later blamed a hernia for Sheen 's pain and ambulance ride to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center . He did not respond to a CNN request for comment on the 911 call Wednesday . Sheen 's manager has said the actor is undergoing rehab at home , not in a residential facility . Nassif , in an interview Tuesday with HLN 's `` Showbiz Tonight , '' said he could n't tell if Sheen , who is his friend , was drunk . What he told the emergency dispatcher last week was different . `` I got him on the phone and he was very , very intoxicated , also apparently in a lot of pain , '' Nassif said on the 911 call . He told the dispatcher that Sheen was saying , `` Do n't call 911 . '' Nassif is a facial plastic surgeon and is not Sheen 's medical doctor , Nassif told HLN . He later explained to HLN that he was protecting his friend by saying in Tuesday 's interview that he was n't sure Sheen was drunk . Sheen and now ex-wife Brooke Mueller were married in Nassif 's Beverly Hills home , Nassif said . Nassif 's wife , Adrienne Maloof-Nassif , appears on `` Real Housewives of Beverly Hills . '' `` They wanted to get married , and a mutual friend introduced all of us , and they said , 'Let 's get married , can we get married at your house ? ' and that 's how we met and soon after that we became very good friends , '' Nassif said . Nassif drove Sheen home from the hospital , but he declined to provide details of their conversation . `` There were things he said I do n't feel comfortable '' disclosing , Nassif said . At another point in the interview , Nassif added : `` Obviously we all want Charlie to keep his sobriety . No one can push him into it . '' CNN 's Kareen Wynter contributed to this report .
The actor entered rehab last week after an emergency hospital visit . NBC 's ` ` Two and a Half Men '' is on a ` ` " hiatus '' and ordered extra espisodes of another sitcom to fill the void .
