Any ideas please? My Mum has had dementia for very long time - more than 12 years . (I fought the term 'living death' for years but feel there is so much to mourn now - a good day is when when Mum opens her eyes). Ideas wanted as Mum slips down in her chair (at care home) & has even sliipped onto floor! She has osteoporosis so I really worry about this. The staff have tried special non slip material on the chair etc etc nothing seems to workl
I dont want Mum in a reclined chair as i dont think she would like it - she alwalys like to sit up fairly straight in a chair - but with a curved spine too her head misses the wings of chair & she slumps to one side much of time.
The home had a very old chair that Mum sank into & she looked as if she really loved that cosy chair - of course it was thrown out when all the smart new furniture arrived with refurbishment of home - now it looks more like a hotel !
