Hello everyone i am new to this forum and reading some of the posts i know i am not alone in what i am going through.
My mum has Alzheimers she has been diagnosed for about 4 years or so, she lives with me and i am her only carer, i love my mum to bits and don't like seeing her like this.
At night she gets up and down like a yo yo because she said she needs the toilet, when she gets up she can't find her way back to her bedroom which means i'm up and down as well. I have bought a night light which i'm going to test out tonight, but i was wondering if anyone had any ideas about signs or something that i could put on the doors upstairs, you know something like kids bedroom name plagues as i figure if they were fluorescent she might be able to find her own way back to her bedroom. I have looked for things like that on the internet but there doesn't seem to be anything like that, so any ideas would be appreciated.
