The problem is that she thought there was an intruder in the house. She left the house without letting my father or I know. She was found by the neighbours whom brought her back to our home. Are there any products out there that would set a sound in the master bedroom or my phone when/if she walks out of the house without letting us know? Too many products and hard to choose from. Any recommendations would help. Thank you in advance.
However, what I found most useful were sleigh bells.
Dad had an antique ring of sleigh bells (from somewhere in his past) that I looped over the door.
He didn’t question it and my mother could hear those bells if Dad tried to open the door.
Bless you and good luck. The road you are on is not easy. Been there twice!
I bought a mat that I placed outside her bedroom door that had an alarm. When she stepped on it the alarm went off. When the alarm went off she went back inside her room. A few minutes later she would forget about the alarm and step on it again. She never went passed the mat, just went back into her room. The alarm kept sounding until I turned it off. I later programmed it to play "She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes" for the humor of it.
You can buy inexpensive motion detecting security cameras that sound when motion is detected from a phone or tablet.
My Mom took the bracelet off as soon as I put it on, she also tore off a necklace that had info on it within 2 minutes. As careful as I was with her, she was a runner. After the bracelet and necklace didn't work, I put washable tattoos with her info on it on the back of her arm. She never got out but I wanted to be sure, if she did, she had info on her person at all times.
I also installed some little flip locks on the doors and Luz never figured out how to use them.
I am grateful for the guidance I have gotten in figuring out this care and that things went so well in taking on this responsibility.
Here is simple suggestion. Put black rugs in front of the exterior doors, on the inside floor. To Mom, those black rugs may look like a dark hole in the floor, thus she may be afraid to step on it. This may or may not work. It's the less expensive thing to try.
