Reynard bath in bed wipes are a complete bathing system comprising eight high quality wipes impregnated with a gentle soap-free cleansing and moisturising solution. Heat this pack of eight wipes in a microwave oven for a comforting top-to-toe bath without fuss. Traditional bed bath methods can take up to 30 minutes, require 1-2 staff and use a number of supplies. Moving patients from bed to shower can be a difficult and stressful manual handling process for carer and patient. Bath in bed wipes also eliminate the need for reusable accessories such as basins and washers that can harbour bacteria, which will also assist to reduce cross-infection risks. When used in conjunction with a Reynard shampoo cap, we offer a complete ‘in-bed’ bathing process that is less stressful to the patient and carer. A simplified approach to washing that requires no water, no additional products or towels thus saving on material, labour and laundry costs.
