My Dad has Alzheimer's and is in the later stages. He has violent outburst can't remember who we are. He keeps loaded guns in house. Any advice?

You actually need advice? How about don't go there, call the police, his doctor, and Adult Protective Services. Today.

You need to call adult protective services today ! Your Dad needs to be in a nursing home, probably a lockdown facility. He is way beyond staying at home , even with a caregiver. Tell them exactly what you told us. Please don't wait. You would be doing the right thing , for all concerned. They will have a caseworker to help you and your Dad. God Bless you Justmeg. PS He won't like it at all, but remember, he is not capable of making decisions, anymore.

I can't believe how many postings I have seen on this issue of firearms in a home of someone who can become violent because of their memory issues. Am I missing something here? Why on earth would anyone allow someone to have ammo under these conditions? In the meantime, prior to getting Dad into a professional environment, remove all the ammo immediately before he hurts you, or someone else, or himself.

My husband kept a loaded gun under his pillow during the early to mid stages of alz..coincidently pointed my direction. Early on I had a neighbor disable the gun. Everything about it looked the same but it wouldn't fire. That took the terror out of that situation but I was not dealing with violent behavior. That has to be addressed and with professionals. Good luck

have I missed something why are there multiple postings of the same question call the cops call The adult protective services he is too dangerous and far beyond his ability to stay at home try to get the guns and the bullets away from him get the bullet and the gun away from him because if a cop sees him armed he would have shot him it doesn't matter if there no bullets in the gun the cops going to shoot your dad immediately because it's his life or the cop's life

Peroxide is very good at getting blood stains out of carpet. You don't really need to know that though, because the BATF will lob a teargas cartridge through a window and darn it all, those things are incendiary. Usually the house catches fire, but the firemen will hose down the adjacent homes to protect them. On the bright side, you save the cost of being cremated.
