Hi everyone,
I haven't posted a thread for some time but would very much appreciate any advice anyone could offer regarding the following problem.
I am full-time Carer to my Mum who has Alzheimer's. At times she is quite agitated and continually slips down the armchair. We bought her a Reclining Chair, but even with the footrest raised, she still slips right down the chair.
Mum is constantly lifting her feet up and down on the chair and raises her arms up and down (in a flapping motion). I thought initially that these movements became more evident when in need of toileting, but more recently, despite regular toileting, they seem to be getting worse. I wondered whether anyone else has this problem?
