Taking a good bath not only keeps you feel relaxed, but also keeps the skin smooth and glowing. Seniors and elders may often dislike the idea of bathing. This may be due to fear of falling and getting hurt. A trained and gentle caretaker, who understands the concerns of seniors about bathing, will sure make each bathing the most lovable and endearing activity.
Based on the needs of the seniors we recommend handrails, non-skid mats in the shower or tub, and shower chair or a bench.
Understandably, personal hygiene is much more important for seniors than those of youngsters. For seniors, under different medications the body immunity and resistance levels are below average. If proper personal hygiene is not maintained by seniors there are greater chances of becoming susceptible to more diseases.
