Bathing

Coleman Adult Day offers private and safe handicapped-assessable bathing facilities to our clients. Because caregivers often face challenges in bathing a loved one that include lack of appropriate, safe equipment, or resistance and combativeness due to dementia or cognitive impairment, bathing services at Coleman Adult Day Services has become a favorite of our clients and caregivers.

Many times, Coleman Adult Day Services staff is more successful with bathing due to the fact that:

• We are not a family member trying to invade an individual’s privacy.
• Our bathing area is private.
• The bathing room is warm and inviting.
• We monitor the temperature of the water to make sure that it is safe.
• The jets on the tub feel good on arthritic joints.
• We play soothing music during bathing.
• We make sure modesty and dignity are maintained during bathing.

Staff also does a skin assessment prior to bathing and alerts the nursing staff of any concerns.
 
If bathing your loved one is getting to be too difficult, give us a call at 330-296-3214 to schedule your free no obligation tour of our facility and private, safe and handicap-assessable bathing area.
