How can I convince my incontinent mother to wear Adult Diapers?

Question

My mother is 82 years old and incontinent? She lives alone and when I go to her house her chair is all wet from urine because she's incontinent.

I've tried telling her she needs to wear Adult Diapers. But she doesn't listen?

How can I convince her to wear Adult Diapers or Pull Ups for her incontinence and also how can I get her to clean the urine out of her chair?

Answer 1

You can't force her to wear an adult diaper if she really doesn't want too.

You can keep trying to convince her and maybe get her to wear them. Or you can get her some absorbent disposable bed mats and put them on her chair and her bed.

Is she physically able to take care of herself in other aspects or does she really need to go into assisted living?
