Find Care & Housing
Cassies95, my Dad had sundowning and Dad would get into his time-machine and go back to the 1940's. I didn't correct him, I just played along.

I knew where he was back in the 1940's, working full-time, was married to my Mom, and was taking the bus to and from work. He would mention staying at the hotel, which was really his apartment at the senior facility. I would ask him how the meeting went, etc.

There are medications that can help with some of the symptoms. Agitation and anxiety.
Change lighting to LED lights so the room is brighter and there are fewer shadows.
Close blinds or drapes as it begins to get dark. This will cut down on reflections in the glass making it look like there are people looking in.
Finding things to keep the person occupied helps.
