My mum-in-law - recently diagnosed with dementia - is soon due to stay 2 weeks with her brother's family while her bathroom is given a complete makeover (she's disabled and unable to bathe without carer's support). On a recent overnight visit to other family members she has become so agitated and unco-operative that the relatives have phoned us to say they can't cope - we have dashed over to collect her and bring her back to her own home. This time, that option is not possible because her flat will not be habitable while the new bathroom's being installed. Her brother lives 180 miles away. What are the options if the relatives say they can't cope during the renovation time? Is there some sort of emergency respite care? What can we advise her brother's family to do if she becomes agitated and distressed?
