How to give a Bed Bath in the Home - Tips for Caregivers

Bathing keeps the skin healthy and can help prevent infections. A person who can't move well or who can't move at all needs a bed bath. You can give a full bath in bed without getting the bed sheets wet.

Thank you. My mom is 95 and I’m 74 trying to take care of her. Bless you.

God bless you for your videos. My spouse has M.S. and is paralized over 75% of his body and I need all the help I can get. I know most of the things you show us, but it never hurts to be reminded of the easiest and best way to do things. Thank you soooo much and godbless you.

Thank you! Patting the skin dry was something I hadn't thought of!

Great tips and I'm sure the "no gloves" was simply an oversight. It takes a lot of time and energy to create a professional video. This was straight to the point and great. Thank you.

All of these videos show fully clothed 'patients' who are able to assist themselves in turning. We need videos for bare skin turning and patients who are dead weight and unable to assist and importantly 200+ pounds.

I gave my first bed bath to a bed bound patient today. Thank you for all of this tips. I will be sure to use them next time. I feel like a did a good job but there’s some steps I will be adding to our routine.

Thank you ladies this helped me to organize the process of the bed bath. I was a maniac the first time I gave my grandmother one. Water everywhere, soap in one eye, she kept getting cold…thank goodness we were both able to laugh during the whole thing.

I'm a caregiver for 7yrs.for me this video is a kind of a sample of how to do a sponging, i do bed bath for my bedridden patient totally bed bath not sponging, I'm just only say what is my way for bed bath but actually if u do bed bath must be hospital bed not a normal bed bcoz it's not easy between the caregiver and the patient.
