My Mom turns 79 this month, but she took a fall in December and broke her hip, so I can relate somewhat to your situation. I think it's good to make the study into her "room" so that she feels more settled. I also like the idea of Seniors Activities - some of them have discussion groups, book clubs, etc., along with things like chair aerobics, mah johgg, bridge etc. I think it is better "for the soul" to have some social stimulation with other people, instead of strictly the T.V.

Pharmacies that rent Medical Equipment were a Godsend for me. I went to a "family owned" one and they were so helpful and knew exactly what they were talking about.
