My mom goes to Adult Day Care every day but when she is home she has nothing to do. What can she do at home to keep her busy?

try to get her to help you out with some chores like folding clothes when you do loundry setting the table for dinner. maybe some games bingo is good one for her. if she wants to hep out with other chores let her do it. my mom was hard to to keep her active i couldnt get her to go to adult day care, she wass house bond I couldnt get her to go out much, music was ao good thingmy mom likemusic i use to always play the oldies for her. i lost my mom a mnth ago she died from late stages of alzheimers i had to put her in a nusring home she got very hard at the end I couldnt get any one to help me out she needed 24 hour care. i could relate to you mymom was alays calling me she didnt follo me around calling me all the time. towrds the end she kept falling she was hallucinating i had to get her help put her in a hospital than a nusring home Lost her December 10, try to keep her busy as much as possible. iknow its frustrating.

PLAY ANY GAMES SHE MAY LIKE, CARD,CHESS,CHECKERS,
HAVE THE KIDS DO SOMETHING WITH HER
REMEMBER SHE MAY LIKE EVERY THING SHE WAS ABLE TO DO, SO TRY TO MAKE HER HAPPY FOR THE LAST.
THIS WAY YOU WILL HAVE NOTHING TO REGRET

Can someone help you on the weekends? What about a support group for you? Talking about it helps ease some of the anxiety.

What does she enjoy doing at Adult Day Care? Maybe you can create whatever it is at home. Is it ok with you if she sews and nothing gets done? If it gives her pleasure that's good. Does she like music? simple jigsaw puzzles? Taking walks with someone? What did she used to do that can be in her life in a simply and easy way now?

When is home or the anticipation of having her home is so depressing for me. Friends tell me I need drugs to take the edge off the stress She oftens follows me around or calls me constantly. Keeping her occupied is very difficult. I love her but caring for her has become quite a chore. Any help or thoughts out there?
