From my experience with my Mom, i would stay with him a few nights so I would be there when he wakes in the middle of the night disoriented. Then you can explain things to him. Mom seemed more receptive when she would wander out of her bedroom in the middle of the night wondering where she was. She was probably dreaming about people she knew and was looking for them, or someone familiar. Sometimes she even asked where everyone was. I was a familiar person telling her where she was and showing her some of the stuff around the house she recognized. The bulb would light sometimes dimly but she seemed content and go on back to bed. Waking at night was different than waking during the day. Think maybe she was suggestible because she wasn't fully awake.
