WARNING
In the following bathing instructions you are required to
rinse the resident with the shower sprayer (Figure 1).
Before doing so each time, make sure the temperature is
between 95 and 105 degrees Fahrenheit by viewing the
temperature readout (Figure 1). As a further precaution,
always test the water on the inside of your wrist before
turning the shower sprayer toward the resident. Failure to
follow the precautions in this could result in a burn injury
to the operator or the resident.
3. Bathe the resident’s body as follows:
a) Position one hand or hand with washcloth under the
Shampoo dispensing spout and push the Shampoo
Dispensing Pump Plunger (Figure 1) to dispense
Penner Body Wash and Shampoo. Apply it directly to the
resident’s body.
b) Begin gently washing the resident’s body. Pay special
attention to folds or creases in the skin and under the
arms. If the scalp is flaky, apply a small amount of
Penner Bath Oil to the problem area and let it soak in
until time for shampoo.
4. Rinse the body with the shower sprayer as follows.
c) Pick up the Hand-Held Shower Sprayer (Figure 1)
located off to the side of the control panel.
d) Press the Shower Button (Figure 1) to activate the
Shower Sprayer.
Note: Once the shower sprayer is activated, it will stay
activated for a period of time and then automatically
shut off. This time period (up to 10 minutes) is
adjustable by maintenance personnel only. The shower
can be re-activated at any time by pressing the shower
button.
