Seniors who have severe difficulty with hearing, seeing, mobility, or the ability to run a household will be significantly challenged to live independently in the community. For individuals living with a disability, however, extra support at home can result in an improved quality of life.
Many of my friends are in trouble: the elderly don’t take baths for a long time and they always smell bad, and they are afraid of hurting their self-esteem by speaking out.
Don’t be disgusted。 Have you really tried to understand why they don’t like to take a bath。The elderly "resistance" to bathing is not because he is unhygienic, but it is really a disaster!
Due to cognitive decline and memory loss, elderly people with dementia may forget to clean themselves, or even forget the meaning of the cleaning。
It is more about dignity and dignity for the disabled elderly.As lack of self-care ability, they can only rely on help for cleaning. Sometimes the psychological fluctuations caused will make them reluctant to take a bath.
Secondly, the risk factor is high especially for bedridden elderly people. Every time they move or turn over, they may feel uncomfortable or even dangerous if they are not careful.
didn’t take a shower for a long time, the most obvious thing is the odor.As a result, the elderly are not approached, which affects normal social activities and leads to unsatisfied emotional needs.
In addition, wrinkles in the skin make it easier to hide dirt and bacteria, causing itching, dermatitis and other skin diseases.
So how to solve the bathing problem of the elderly?
Bathing assistance service is one of the solutions.However, every time a bathing assistant comes to the house to bring a large number of bathing aids equipment, emergencies during the bathing process, etc., will put a certain test on the physical strength and patience of the bathing assistant.
In response to the pain points of traditional bathing services, Shenzhen zuowei Technology Co., Ltd developed a portable bed shower machine. It is very light less than 5 kgs, making it very suitable for home bathing services.
The portable bathing machine can shower directly on the bed, didn’t need to move the elderly from the bed to the bathroom, thus avoiding the risk of falls for the elderly from the source.The dedicated shower head protects the personal hygiene and avoids cross-infection, making bathing safer and more dignified for the elderly. Let the bedridden and disabled people, and truly providing peace of mind to the family.
In addition, with the help of a portable bathing machine, only need one person to operate the machine. Compared with the traditional team-based bathing aid, the cost is greatly reduced, and it is more convenient and efficient.
Shenzhen zuowei technology co.,ltd provides bathing aids with increasingly cost-effective products for major elderly care institutions, housekeeping service companies, communities and families to meet the daily bathing needs of the disabled, semi-disabled, elderly, dementia and other elderly people.
