My daughter is an RN and before that an LPN. She has already told me she would not be doing that for me. She has cleaned up enough people for a lifetime.
OMG! As much as I dread that diarrhea clean up for my husband I can’t begin to imagine doing that for a parent. My husband has 2-3 weekly and it’s my worst nightmare. He may have been sitting in it for an hour or so if I’ve been at a Dr appt or grocery shopping and has dried up somewhat. At least since we started using UnderX pull-ups there is never any leakage and it’s easy to pull them down and off without mishap. I use kitchen gloves and xtra large wipes, finishing with scrubz disposable rinse free sudsy cloths. I spray the gloves after use with germicide disinfectant and hang to dry.
Thank you for your advice, it's the #1 answer, however, the arrangement of his bathroom does not allow for a second person to be near the toilet except for directly in front of it ("water closet" arrangement). It could possibly work but what i really need is specific advice for cleaning his ANATOMICAL parts and the difficulties that go with it.
