Regarding Part I: :hpygrp:
Regarding Part II:
Are there buckets in the shower room that attach to the shower chairs? We put a plastic trash bag in one, then it catches all the urine and BM during the shower (and a bit of water, too :)). After the shower is over you just dump it out or tie the bag shut and pitch it in the dumpster. Voila.
Sounds like my day on Sunday night
I love those days....but then Monday comes around and it just brings the question "why does everything seem to be crazier during the week?" And my mind slipped....and I forgot to get the height of one of my residents. Remembered right as I was stepping out the door.
I still haven't managed to perfect giving a shower without getting soaked from the knees down.
Congrats on having such an awesome day! I hope it is repeated an array of times ahead.

Just wanted to say that I had an AWESOME day at work. Four residents told me that they love me and I am a great aide. We had THREE aides on the hall tonight!! Everything got done completely and early. My favorite nurse thanked me and told me she appreciated me!
I have been home three hours and I am totally rested and relaxed.
Now I have to clean my shoes. That is a whole other story. By the by..... How does one avoid stepping in BM whilst giving showers?
