[quote=Anonymous]Sorry I wasn’t very clear in my initial posting. My Mom is eighty - when she had a daily caregiver while living in her home, her caregiver would give her a daily bath. She has arthritis and is visually impaired health wise. Now is in a nursing home where she only receives one bath per week and I was just wondering if this was typical bathing frequency in a good nursing home since it seems a little infrequent to me, though I acknowledge that it is a lot of physical labor to bathe another adult. I have also heard stories that many nursing home patients do not like taking a bath and may protest adamantly but the nurses at my mother’s home insist she does not protest bathing.[/quote]
