Thanks for your comment, Sharon. We are so sorry to hear about your mum’s situation - this must be a really worrying time for you, your sister and your family.
We would strongly recommend speaking with one of our dementia advisers. They will be best placed to provide you and your sister with a plan of action for your mum's support.
You can call our Dementia Connect support line on 0333 150 3456 for more information, advice and support. More details about the support line (including opening hours) are available here: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/dementia-connect-support-line
You and your sister may also benefit from speaking with other people affected by dementia. We have an online community called Talking Point where carers and other people affected by dementia can share their experiences and receive peer support. This could be a great place for you and your sister to receive helpful suggestions from other people who may have been in similar situations: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/get-support/dementia-talking-point-our-on…
