What are the best and most comfortable ladies protective underwear products any one has found to be helpful? They’re much improved from the past but want to make a good choice when I try to introduce her to using them. 85, mild dementia and always in denial!
I bought her some of those panties with the permanent pad sewn in that are washable, but the padding apparently was not thick enough and a big mess resulted. I also now put a bed pad that is quilted on one side and a waterproof material on the other side under her fitted sheet.
Recently I have been making sure she gets up from her recliner every two hours or so to go to the bathroom. That way she walks and moves around and also uses the restroom. Win/win!
Also, make sure the floor on the way to the bathroom is easy to clean. Someone mentioned putting down a gray tarp for his wife - think outside the box. At some stage, you might consider getting a bedside commode to keep in her room. And, peapod or other absorbent pads for the bed/chairs. Depending on how often the leaks happen and how comfortable you are doing laundry, you can get fabric or disposable ones.
