The real solution is to take the remote apart, wrap the entire buttons area of the pcb and only scratch/cut free the buttons she needs. That way it still looks the same but she actually can’t hit a button she should keep her fingers off, bc the buttons are disabled.
We were living with an old woman who was th Alzheimers for 2 years. Once we’d “repaired” her TV it gave her a lot less trouble (as she couldn’t accidentally switch the source to radio anymore…)

But then she has to press every button because she can’t remember which button was the up one, instead of fewer buttons
That’s a really good point! Never thought of it that way.
This makes you not need to help as much, but more work when you need to help… I dont know.
Creative idea tho
