What do you mean by "a new home"? Should you 'get adjusted' to it first, so that you have a better idea yourself about what M will need?

B,
I think given that we really don't know anything about your mom, and you are living with her, that YOU are the expert here. I am going to leave this in your good hands, because moves are difficult on everyone in the best circumstances. Good lighting from the windows and with lights themselves is perhaps a good way to begin. Take things slow and easy and be very available to her in the first days to do walk-arounds and walk-throughs.
Try to keep emotions and tempers pretty even in this time of stress and good luck to you.

You don't "get" someone adjusted to a new environment......time does that. You set up her room as it was in the other home, and bring familiar things along. Then time takes care of the rest.

Good luck to you,.

Maybe call Office Of Aging and ask for an evaluation of the new home with sight being a problem. They can offer suggestions how to place things so Mom does not trip. Maybe give Mom some tips, maybe some training.
