My LO has extremely cold hands. She wears gloves and keeps her room very hot. I know this happens with elders. My question is has anyone found something she could use - she does have dementia but still in AL- that the facility allows? I was going to get her a heated mattress pad but it doesn’t seem like those are allowed due to fire hazard/ burn possibilities? Thanks for any ideas.
Perhaps she could try that even with her gloves on. Good luck.
I would stick to light, soft, fleece gloves. And do speak to the people at the facility for what they have found works for others. Sometimes just a fleecey lap blanket helps. Good luck.
Also, wearing a hat--a wool beret or cashmere beanie is something to try.
