Hello TP,
Waiting for results of mum's CT scan a fortnight ago and we are pretty sure she will have dementia of some sort. She sleeps loads - up to 14 hours a day - and her room needs doing up. As she is adamant that she never wants to go into a care home, we are doing the house up bit by bit to keep it in good condition for her. So, my question is that her bedroom carpet needs to go - and something more practical as she is incontinent and although she wears Tena lady pants, she does have accidents. Anyone have any idea what kind of flooring would be best? Vinyl? Wooden? Anyone tried any waterproof vinyls?
Any advice would be great.
Also, we need to convert her ensuite shower room into a wet room eventually, is this a good idea and feasible on the 1st floor?
Thank you
