How can I get my mom to TRY a senior day center for the day...
I think a senior day center -- and we have several nearby -- would be a great break for my mom. When she's home with me, I am working, so she doesn't have much to do but watch TV. These centers have activities all day long, serve a hot lunch, go on trips, etc. Many if not most of the other people are handicapped in some way -- use a wheelchair, or a walker.
It would be especially important if my hubby gets a job. Because we are either going to have to get an aide or send her to the senior day center for two days a week anyway.
But you would think I was asking her to voluntarily commit herself to the nursing home for good! I want her to have something interesting to do for some hours of the week, that's all.
Any ideas?
