Hyacinth and tulips in pots

I purchased hyacinth and tulips in pots both flowering. Can I keep them as houseplants or do they have to go into the ground? I live in Newport, KY in a senior housing center without an outside garden. I have researched these with no help; I know nothing about these. Also, the hyacinth flowers are flopping over; can I help these stand up? I recently had shoulder surgery and suffer winter blues and these plants are helping me feel better. I hate to lose them. Please help me to care for them. Thank you so much.
