For 1 week a month to give my MIL respite, we bring my FIL, a PWD, to live with us and have done so for more than 2 years. He loves to visit, we love having him and my MIL loves the break. Since the vascular dementia was diagnosed, apart from the memory loss there has been little if any, change in his behaviour apart from my wife having to lay out the clothes he will wear on any particular day. He washes, shaves and showers completely without help. He walks slowly but so far does not stumble and hasn’t had any falls. And now, our problem. We have had our shower room updated complete with walk-in shower and my FIL uses that shower without problem. However, if falling or stumbling starts, and given that one wall of the shower is all glass, how should we tackle this situation? Is it really a problem? Fitter has said that the fitting of a seat would require the complete dismantling of the shower cubicle and removal of the new tiling to fit dwangs ( wooden supports) for the seat. I would be grateful for members comments.
