He has been diagnosed with Dementia. He has very low energy and does not want to do anything. He will not take a shower and when he does he is not thorough. I understand that this is more commen than I thought but he needs to take a shower regardless. Please help me help hi
On the market are pre-moisten bath cloths that your Dad can use to clean himself without stepping into a shower. You can even use Huggies Naturals Wipes, which I use between showers for myself.... on those days where you can't find enough time for your own personal care.
Does he have a seat or bench to sit on while in the shower? Grab bars? Non-skid surface? Is the shower as safe as it can be for him?
