We all know that incontinence isn't age specific, so why use baby wipes on youth, teens or adult skin? Babies smell good with that baby powder smell, but we're not all babies.
Some of the fantastic new incontinence products are those adult washcloths. They're extremely popular in long-term care settings, but also in our own homes.
Their ease of use & the fact that they are disposable, help to lessen the work for the caregiver & provide a healthier environment for everyone. Some are now biodegradable & flushable!
ReadyBath brand wipes are one of the many fabulous new products on the market. These cloths can be used at room temperature, but warming them up before use, provides more comfort for the person being washed. ReadyBath also have special incontinence products for those who have special needs in the perineal area. Easy to use & effective at cleansing that area, they also moisturize, deodorize, & provide a barrier protection.
More innovative incontinence products, while not directly related to incontinence, are the ReadyBath shampoo & conditioning caps. This one-step system is less time consuming than conventional shampooing methods & requires no clean-up. Everyone feels better when their hair is well groomed!
Caregivers like the level of protection for their patients, while at the same time they appreciate the time it can save them - because they do not have to scrub off special creams & ointments. Budgets like these incontinence products because there's no more wasting tubes of this & tubs of that, due to cross contamination.
These products are a win/win for everyone!
