Love this site I need help with a lady that will not shower.The lovely lady will just say, that she has shower today, and gets very upset, with me, that I maqy think that she is lying.Your ideas are most welcome.I'm thinking maybe a template that maybe she can see,that today is t shower day. If you know where I can fine one this may help. Thank you

Try letting her smell baby powder apparently the smell of it makes them want to shower worth a try
Placing some wall pictures in the bathroom may draw her to the bathroom, if she is interested in birds I'd place a variety of bird pictures in there. Also try covering the mirror, sometimes if the person has dementia they don't recognize themselves and this can confuse them more.
I just wanted to tell you that this addition of "This day in History" is phenomenal!!!! I've been looking for something like this, and to have it all done, makes my job so much easier! I love your website and my seniors enjoy all of the great activities! THANK YOU!!
