ToddWeston Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I'm busily preparing for the arrival of my brother due to arrive in a week who will be spending a month with us. He is 39 and has Down syndrome. This will be is forth visit to Thailand and my sister will be escorting him on the journey, he's a great traveller. When we travel we often take a bed alarm, as he wakes numerous times in the evening and can become alarmed/agitated in new surroundings, we use the silent bed alarm that only alerts us on a monitor as to not scare him if he does do a walk about. My parents just informed me the travel pack bed alarm we have is broken and it will take weeks to replace, hence my query, does anyone know if one can be purchased locally ? I'm a Pharmacist and have many local pharmacist friends that I reached out to a short while ago and they didnt have the foggiest idea where I could get my hands on one and only suggested bed rails which are out of the question. I have no issue with him sleeping with us as he does at home, but he's excited to have his own room here Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonburiram Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Try Google " bed alarm Thailand ". Maybe you can put some dim light in " strategic " places to help him see/remember his surroundings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His surroundings are fantastic and the Thai family are incredible with support - it's just the night we usually have issues and I'd prefer not to medicate him. He's precious and it's all about him at this point. Great suggestion about the night lights - I'll action that tomorrow. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll find them easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanyaburi Mac Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 How about checking Home Pro for a room type alarm. Perhaps a motion detector, laser? Seems to me I've seen such there. Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
