Thanks. The girl from the dementia team has said she'd like to see him out of the hospital environment as soon as possible and the reasons why, which is a lot better than the harassment mum got on Thursday. I just got to keep mum calm that it's not an emergency to get him out, and that it's important we do what's right for dad and the rest of us.
To keep dad occupied in the daytime mum used to take him to garden centres etc to pass time, and I have suggested they go and look at care homes as an activity.
They have attended coffee mornings but that is only once a month, so I have suggested they try the day centre too.
He was a very keen gardener but struggles with basic things these days, but I will try and spend some more time with him planting seeds.
I kind of tried this last year hoping he could educate me for when he did start to struggle but feel I was too late.
