Last night mom asked for another nightlight. I put one in the outlet and this morning it was out. She removed it at some point even though she asked for it. I don't want her messing with the outlets. I'll try again but I'm thinking I need to remove it from her room if she starts up with it. Did your loved one with dementia have any issues with nightlights? I do have one in the hall and one in the bathroom. She leaves those alone.
fwiw worked really well for my mom when in IL and then when she moved to a NH, did it above the doorway for the in the room bathroom and it was pretty ideal. Now the candles do chew through the batteries pretty hard!!!
There are also "night light lamps" that one can sit on a dresser, the on/off is on the cord. I can't deal with a totally dark room, my mind gets lost, and if I stand up I feel like I will fall.
Get one that does not do that, or get a non-flammable shade to block it from
shining in her eyes.
Best wishes
