The tubed gag that I described is about as safe as you can get. The two dangers from gags are anoxia if the nose blocks and (less likely, but much more rapidly dangerous if it should happen) inhaling vomit, because if the mouth is sealed it has nowhere to go but the lungs. The tube should address both problems.Originally Posted by MrKurt
I agree with those others who have said that whatever the arrangements, she must have an emergency call facility. If there isn't a convenient phone point, you could leave her a cell phone or one of those push-button pagers that people get for invalids or elderly relatives: this on the basis that, as I tell my slaves when I point out the alarm button in the cell, "if you use it when your life isn't in danger, it will be." Also a set of keys, in some sort of in-emergency-break-glass arrangement.
