Hi,
I am new to the forum and it looks to be a great source of information.
My Dad has dementia (mid to late) with my Mum as his carer. They live at home together and my Mum is struggling with the increasing demands.
Mum is at home with him at all times. Unfortunately he has a tendency to wander and we are looking to see if we can install some kind of door sensors that would alert Mum when he opens the door. He has a tracker (though isn't great at keeping it on). The local authority came out to fit something but unfortunately the pager was very heavy and Mum didn't find this helpful. Ideally we are looking for something that just makes a sound when the door is opened.
If anyone has any experience or can make any suggestions that would be great!
Thanks
