[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forget about that stuff. YOu need to label all his clothes down to the underwear assuming the facility's doing the laundry. Buy some laundry markers or order labels as you would for a kid going to camp. Label every personal object from phone handset if you provide it and TV remote and readers/glasses unless you want to keep replacing them. My mom likes food gifts and doesn't care about anything else.[/quote] +1. Sadly, it comes down to this. The residents go into each others rooms and take whatever isn’t nailed down and then leave it wherever. We got FIL an air cleaner and he peed into it thinking he was in the bathroom. He didn’t look at books or the tv because they would confuse him. He didn’t recognize most people in person, nevermind photos. Food and drink ended up being the only thing he cared about. [/quote]
