Care recipient (cr) gets confused and agitated choosing clothing for the day

Try: caregiver (cg) needs to assemble complete outfits including accessory items and hang all together on one hanger or if several hangers are needed use a twisty tie at the top to hook all the hangers together label each complete outfit with a sign attached to correspond to the day of the week and the date of the month hang a large calendar next to the closet cr can match up the date on the clothing with the day and date on the calendar cg may have to help days can then be checked off of the calendar this makes the decision pre-planned and also eliminates the cg having to be the bad guy by either hurrying the cr to make a decision or making it for them
