[quote=Anonymous]Put some camera up around the house. Record how he’s acting. I had to use a recording of my Mom to convince her neurologist and psychneuro that she has dementia. There is a good video on YouTube about how to deal with dementia and “going home”. It’s less about the physical space. More about the feelings of safety and comfort. She gives you great tips on how to respond. And as others have mentioned above, therapeutic lying is a good thing and can redirect them. [/quote]
