My mom keeps putting clean clothes with the dirty clothes. Sometimes I find wet items in the dirty clothes. My washer broke two months ago and I'm in the process of buying a new one come Jan. I have to go to the laundromat to wash and every week my mom has a bag full of clothes that she wants me to wash.. I can't separate the clean from the dirty. Of course, she says it's all dirty, the dirty clothes bag looks like a month's worth. When I wash, I fold and put them away because she seems overwhelmed by the process. Do I need to put less things in the drawers for her to pile? Do I need to remove the hamper out the room? I'm at a lost for this issue.
My mother-in-law did the same thing. she has dementia.
So I would have have to go into her room morning and night and sort out her clothes.
She would ROLL them up in a ball.
Most of her underwear smelled like urine (she mixed them with clean clothes)
Also YES. put LESS in her wardrobe.
I also hung her pants and tops up nicely. she liked that. but LESS.
Underwear, bras, socks ALL in the same drawer, but only 4 of each , if that.
