My mum, who is 87 and has had her dementia diagnosis since 2016, has reached the stage where I don't believe she is safe or happy living independently at home any more. This is for a host of reasons, one of which is a stream of night-time falls recently, involving paramedic attendance to get her up again. Though she wears an emergency call pendant, with the dementia she doesn't remember to use it when she falls (paramedics are often called after the event by my brother, visiting, or by the morning carer who helps her take her meds, etc). So... Social Services have offered to fund a MOTION-SENSOR FALL ALARM. But I've had it from a couple of sources that these are not that reliable or appropriate in an 'own home' environment. That they work better in care homes. DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE OF THESE IN HOME USE? IF SO, WHICH ONES? WHAT DO YOU THINK? WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS? Sorry for 'shouting' my questions! Look forward to hearing from someone...
