Product Overview
Hartmann MoliCare Skin Washcloths are an economical and convenient skincare solution for body and perineal cleaning. Individuals with incontinence are at risk of skin irritation and breakdown when urine or feces come in contact with the skin. Molicare Pre-Moistened Adult Wipes are pre-moistened to quickly clean the skin that's stressed by incontinence. These Adult Wipes are ultra-strong like a washcloth to provide adequate coverage to clean the skin without the worry of the cloth puncturing or tearing.
MoliCare Adult Wipes gently cleanse without the use of water, which is helpful when caring for individuals who are non-ambulatory or who are bedridden. Its hypoallergenic formula is skin-friendly and void of alcohol to not draw away moisture from the epidermis. Lanolin offers a rich emollient to add a barrier to the skin to prevent moisture loss. Soothing aloe is an active ingredient in the pre-moistened wipe to comfort and moisturize the skin. The ingredients in Molicare Perineal Wipes maintain pH to promote balance and wellness for healthy skin.
How Does pH Affect the Skin?
Normal skin has a pH of 5.5. Soaps tend to be alkaline and increase the skin to a higher pH. This can cause epidermal water loss, or the drawing away of moisture from the skin. Individuals with incontinence need to avoid any substances that will cause the skin to be vulnerable due to a higher pH.
Application
- Draw out the desired number of washcloths.
- For added protection, caregivers may want to wear vinyl gloves.
- Have a trash bag accessible and gently wipe the soiled region and repeat until fully clean.
- Do not flush the wipes. Toss the disposable washcloth into the trash and toss the gloves when finished.
- Apply a fresh reusable brief or disposable incontinence brief.
