Hi everyone.
I am looking for any coping mechanisms for a parent who has advanced dementia and is now in the stage where she is very agitated and keeps wanting to "go home" - the old family home she left in Ireland over 60 years ago. She has lived in Manchester all her life since leaving Ireland. I am at the point where I don't know what to do or say to reduce her agitation. Any support or advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks
