[quote=Anonymous]My mom has been in an assisted living for a little over a year, and it has been an up and down experience. She clearly needs to be there, but she will go from participating in activities to not going down to meals or participating at all. She has recently been in a funk (she sees a psychiatrist and takes medication) and we found out that she had several accidents in the common areas. She is understandably upset and is staying in her room. She is also, however, against using any form of absorbent undergarments. Her doctor is aware of this, and I have reached out to her assisted living to discuss. If anyone has any experience in how to do deal with this sensitively I would appreciate it. Thank you.[/quote]
