Hy~Gina Care Portable Personal Showering for the Disabled |
The Hy~Gina Portable Personal showering
system is designed to assist the disabled and infirm to maintain personal cleanliness in
any environment. The Hy~Gina system allows total personal care for individuals confined to
a wheelchair or persons who have a physical impairment restricting use of
standard
tubs or showers. The Hy~Gina showering system is designed for use in the private
home, institution, college dormitory, hotel, hospital or care facility.The showering
system is easily moved to the user rather than moving the patient to the bathroom. The
Hy~Gina will pass through the same opening as a wheelchair and is easily moved by one
person over carpet or hard floors. The Hy~Gina may be moved to the bedside, the water
connections made to the bath and the user easily transferred to the showering system with
much less movement and stress than moving the patient to the bathroom.
The Hy~Gina Personal showering system is designed and developed specifically for the disabled to receive vital hygienic care.The Hy~Gina is at wheelchair height to allow moving from the wheelchair to the shower chair in safety without strain, lifting or hoisting.The design of the Hy~Gina reduces the instances of accidents, back injury, stress and trauma often associated with other showering facilities. Assistance is easily provided and the care companion remains outside the cabinet while maintaining control over the shower system and access to the user. The Hy~Gina may be stored in a corner of the room, moved to the bedside or chairside for use and returned to the corner for easy and unobtrusive storage.
The user maintains personal dignity by being able to properly care for themselves with little help from a companion. The personal showering system provides an enclosed cabinet which allows proper cleansing in semi-privacy. The stress and embarrassment associated with the usual personal cleansing methods is reduced and the user more readily accepts the steps to proper personal care.
