Here's the schedule for mum's eye things. Was a bit drunk with the rhs I will redo that.
I've tried phone alarms / apps but this way seems to have a higher success rate. She's also supposed to be dropping 2 times after 8pm but she likes her baileys so that's up to her.
i'm trying I hope it's logical :( it's a lot of drops.
I understand the paper solution, but I'd still whip that up as a spreadsheet and print it out. Not because I couldn't make such a chart by hand, just that it would never occur to me.
Interestingly the paper / handwritten seems to be more effective than a printed spreadsheet. I think that might be because we sat there together when I was drawing it up, was an activity to get her involved and get her thinking about time intervals for the various drops in the hope she remembers.
Sorry for replying twice and this is a significantly more effort intensive solution.
As it's her vision reading that effectively might be hard.
Have you considered a smart watch she has to wear? It could vibrate at the time required and display the you must do this exact thing now, or maybe could be set to even vibrate/beep differently based on the required task.
Watch would be ideal but she won't wear it. But I think you're right I should include the > 8pm
I'd personally include the after 8pm times so that she's got a reminder and a subtle call out for missing them.
If it's working for her it's working for you too.
Also please make sure you scan it so you can print it next time!
This is what my grandpa has to go through at the moment. It's hard keeping up with all those drops for anyone
That’s great! Clear, colour-coded and easy to see where you’re up to by crossing things off. I think with older people, written down stuff can be easier for them than dealing with technology (based on how my own parents were).
