[quote=Anonymous]My mom lost her ability to operate the TV last year. It was progressive, just like everything with her dementia. Streaming was out of the question, cable worked better but I ended up having to tape the remote control to only leave the power and volume buttons visible, and leave the channel on something that interested her. They make basic remote controls for the elderly that only have power, channel and volume up/down and mute, but they don’t work great (and we tried them all) and even the addition of a mute button got confusing. Again, this is a dementia problem, not just an elderly problem.[/quote]
