Its good that she's going straight into a home and that its not far away. After what the old boy next door went through with his wife I would not recommend anyone look after a relative with dementia once it progresses, its a horrible thing. Before she went into care he looked after her at home but it got to the point where she wouldn't let him do anything for her, she'd shout and swear at him, even throw things at him. The only person she was happy to do things for her was their other neighbour's daughter. Once she went into a care home the old boy visited her every day or every other day, about 15 mins away in the bus. He didn't like speaking about her, never said much other than she was happy in the home.
