[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Instead of pushing for assisted living where he will fall too, help make the house safer, get it cleaned up, grab bars, etc.[/quote] OP here. We have done all of these things and so much more. My father only "walks" with his rollator 3x a day and that is to amble from bed to his chair for the day, to the dinner table for one meal and to return to bed at night. He wears diapers so there is not even the need for bathroom trips. He is still falling multiple times on a regular basis. He reacts negatively whenever we gently bring up the need for assisted living. He is so scared.[/quote] He's actually beyond assisted living IMO. Very sad. [/quote]
