"Person-centered care" means focusing on the person, their needs, dignity and
allowing them to be a part of whatever activity is taking place. It’s not
unusual that a person with Alzheimer’s fails to recognize their caregiver, even
their spouse of thirty years, and refuses to bathe, disrobe or step into the
shower. Agitation is common, as well as discomfort, becoming cold and
embarrassed.
The Bath Cape is not only luxurious, but it is also very practical. Wrap it
around your loved one and they are instantly indulged in a warm, comfortable,
very absorbent robe. If there is any resistance the arm slits make it that much
easier to put on and take off. But what is so nice about this robe is that
amidst all this comfort and luxury, they are also being dried and warmed, not to
mention covered and no longer naked in the presence of a "stranger."
