Any ideas?

Smootchy

We're bringing my grandma home to my moms house on hospice. My parents have a bedroom on the first floor and an "office" which I think it actually a formal living room or whatever. Anyway, we are thinking it's best for her not to be in bedroom but in office. She is not mobile and one room/the office is much more "lively" the views out the window are way better and the room is over twice the size.
Anyway, the problem is the office has a huge doorway, but no doors. It's at least 2 doors wide if not bigger. I want to "enclose" room a little for privacy and comfort while she's sleeping and when ever dressing or ...ya know bathroom stuff. I don't know of a tension rod that would be long enough to hang a curtain. DH suggested one of those folding Japanese style doors [sorry but sure what its called] ...
Any other ideas?
Sorry if this is a long ramble but its been a long day and I'm beat!
TIA too, cuz I might be sleeping in a minute

springy shower curtain rod?

My first thought was the folding screen thingy.

I'm sorry that your grandma is not well.

What about thick curtains? I'd get ones with with grommets and use Command hooks above the door to hang them. Then put two of the larger command hooks sideways on the wall on each side to use as a tieback.

Interesting with the homemade Velcro idea. Of course we'd rather just buy something due to time, she might be coming home tomorrow and we just have so much to do... But that is a good idea. If I can't find anything to buy, maybe I'll ask my mil to make something like that. She's crafty, creative, helpful and retired! :]

Thanks ladies, you are truly appreciated.

I never thought about permanently putting something up, like screwing in hooks and stuff.... It really wouldn't look bad, so that's a maybe. I'll go over tomorrow to look again.
ETA: guess I'm a lil bit of an idiot and didn't know what a command hook was... Google is your friend ladies. Lol. I will be looking into all options

Do you have a Walmart nearby?

These blue curtains are only $10 a panel and are 84'' long.

They'll have the Command hooks there too. They pull off of the wall easily and come in different colors and styles.

That's awesome. I think command hooks will be my friend. Then maybe I'll get those folding doors if she wants privacy by her bed or something... But even if those curtains don't work, aren't wide enough, I can buy another package. DH says the door is at least 96 inches [8 feet], so if I have to put 3 or 4 curtains up, so be it.
I saw on google people using command hooks as the mount or hardware or whatever it's called... So I could have DH make me a poll/rod and use command hooks on sides and maybe middle of door. Then still use the tie back method you first stated.

I'm sorry your grandmother isn't doing well. 

My grandmother's bedbound as well and is her apartment on hospice (but she's been on hospice since the beginning of the year).  It worked out that across from her bedroom door is a large mirror that she's able to watch and sometimes keep track of things that are going on outside her room. 

I'd focus on getting your grandmother some privacy first, but depending on how well/poorly she's doing it might be something else to look into.
