Transporting Seniors

You might check with her Dr. about the possibility of a little something to make her more pleasant. Or maybe something to knock her out.

Slip grandma a roofie. That’s hilarious.

Does she walk okay or need a walker? And in a van could she get up steps or using a step stool get up into the van? I've found about 6 hours in the vehicle is a good amount of time, then a motel room for the evening has worked. I only have driven aunts in their 80s and parents when in 80s. So that's just considerations from my experience.

She’s okay with a walker but needs a wheelchair for shopping.

Started this thread a day or two ago but apparently I didn’t hit post.

My Mother-in-Law could be looking at taking a long trip over several states (more like cross-country) and were kind of at a loss as to what would be the best way to accomplish such a trip. She’s 95 years old and can’t fly so we’re looking at some sort of “road trip”. Figured my OSA friends can be pretty darn creative so if any of you have suggestions I’d love to hear them.

Rent one of these. Bed, bathroom, and kitchen all in one. Get her there and vacation on the way back.
