How do we get mother to change her clothes?

My 95yr old mother wears the same clothes for weeks, until we have to get very forceful verbal to get her to change her clothes.

My father was much the same. He would change his clothes when he took a shower, but he didn't like to shower. So we didn't give him a choice about it. A shower was scheduled, the house was warmed, and everything prepared. My mother supervised as long as she could, then we got a home assistant to come in. He always felt better after his shower and he certainly looked better.
