Waterless bathing for inpatients with neurological issues and complex needs

Abstract

Waterless bathing techniques can enhance the care of patients with neurological difficulties. Traditional methods can be uncomfortable and time consuming. Hospital-acquired infections in the NHS are a significant concern because of both financial burdens and antibiotic resistance, and preventing them is paramount. ContiTM waterless bathing products help reduce infection risks, save time and improve the patient experience. Four case studies illustrate the application of these techniques in a specialist hospital for people with complex and serious neurological conditions, demonstrating their practicality and efficacy as well as improvements in patient care and infection control within healthcare facilities.
