I've done some searching, but all I can find are ideas for a private suite. Mom is in a shared ward room and her personal space consists of her bed, a side table and an ugly wardrobe. Mom can't see so my desire is to make the space more visitor friendly (I can't imagine my family's reaction to the place) and also an attempt to help staff see the difference between the rooms occupants (for example I'm finding I have to go through her clothes daily to remove items that belong to her roommates).
Since mom can't see most of the changes I've made are really to help me and anyone else who comes to visit feel more comfortable (the institutional beige everywhere was just one straw too many for me) and also to let staff know that mom has someone who cares.
