Mom is not sleeping at night and has Alzheimer's. She talks to people she talks to her stuff cats and people who rang there. Then she yells my name waking me up about 0230. I'm a RN work long hours and sick myself. I never get much sleep. She has restotil for sleep . But that is worthless. I am exhausted and don't feel well at all. I have no family to help me . Thank,you
Something she knows and remembers, should be comforting.
You, as an RN have lots of connections with the medical field, other RN's and MD's.
Ask them about a better sleep medicine, and have her MD prescribe it, if you don't want to take her to an appointment.
