My mum has mixed dementia. Recently she has developed a new obsession about wanting to go home, even though she is home.
I now realise that trying to convince her she is safely home is the wrong thing to do.
Can anyone offer me any advice on what to say to her?
Im going to try delay tactics and make excuses as to why I simply can’t take her now but will do in a couple of days. Is this wise? I’m really struggling with this as it’s a new development in her condition.
Any advice is welcome ?
