My mom has lost the COX TV remote once again, multiple times when she lived in her apartment and now in the nursing home. I have previously purchase extra TV remotes but now am looking for a clever solution. I know this habit is part of her dementia. I will try to see if just turning the TV manually will work and make the cox channels appear also. This didn't work in her apartment. She only watches one channel. Any suggestions are welcome.

Meanwhile, though - if she only ever watches the one channel, what happens if you set her tv to that channel, can you just turn it on at the wall again without using the remote?
Otherwise, I guess you could find some kind of lanyard to glue the remote to her chair or table - but you'd have to watch out that she couldn't entangle herself in it. Just having one of those holders wouldn't work because she'd never put the remote back in it.
These things are sent to try us...
