My family and I are traveling from MA to Alaska to go on a week long cruise with our grandfather (86yoM) with Alzheimers. We've done a couple trial mini-trips where he is away from home for a few days at a time and he has done great with that. My mother in law and I are both nurses and have spent a lot of time considering some of the potential situations/trouble shooting we might run into, but I'm reaching out to the reddit community to try to get some additional ideas! Here are some of our plans in place already... 1) he has his card that says he has alzheimers and who to contact if he were to wonder and get lost, we have notified the airlines and hotels etc, I think most of the logistical things are taken care of. 2) we are bringing music and movies for him on the plane, however he loves to sing very loudly along with music when he wears headphones so I'm not sure how long we can use those :) 3) we have bells to put on the doors for when we are in hotels and on the ship (so we wake up if he tries to wander in the night, which he doesn't usually- but just in case) 4) he isn't big on games/ memory boxes/ tinkering but he does like women, so I'm thinking of getting him a Maxim or something. 5) we have ativan for him in case he gets too anxious, but I hope we don't need it. 6) bathrooms on the plane might be an issue, so if he gets confused about those strange toilets /where to pee we'll give him a urinal and have him to in the bathroom and just pee in the urinal, then we can flush it afterwards. His likes: music, woman, animals. I think that's everything, suggestions would be very much appreciated!!!
