Client-Pflegetipps für Ihre CNAs - Dressing & Pflege




Helping clients with grooming and dressing is part of the job of a nursing assistant. Do the CNAs at your workplace know how important this everyday task is to their clients? Do they use dressing and grooming activities as an opportunity to observe their clients? By sharing the following information and tips at your next CNA inservice meeting, you may give your aides a different perspective on personal care.Looking Good...and Feeling Better!At first glance, getting ready for the day is so clear-cut and easy that we often don't give it a second thought. We simply get dressed, brush our teeth, comb our hair and perform all the other tasks we need to do to make ourselves presentable. Now, just imagine if:



Your arm was stiff and you couldn't get your shirt on.



You couldn't reach back to close a zipper or hook your bra.



Your legs hurt and you couldn't reach down to put on your socks or shoes.



Your fingers were bent from arthritis and you couldn't tie your shoelaces.



You were unable to remember how to put your clothes on-or in what order.



Your arms shook so badly you couldn't brush your teeth, comb your hair or shave yourself.For people who have physical or mental impairments, dressing and grooming tasks are often difficult to manage alone. Sometimes they might take their frustration out on the people around them.That's where you come in. With your help and encouragement, your clients won't feel discouraged by their appearance or ashamed that they can't dress privately by themselves.A Dozen Benefits of Good Grooming



Letting your clients choose their own clothing gives them feelings of being independent and in charge.



Cheering clients on to do their best while dressing supports a team spirit and gives them a feeling of belonging.



Allowing your clients to do as much as they can by themselves helps their self- reliance grow.



Voicing your approval during dressing and grooming gives clients a sense of being valued.



Looking good boosts each client's self esteem and may even help a bad mood disappear!



Dressing your clients helps protect the skin from injury and maintain proper body temperature.



Making sure your clients' clothing fits properly keeps all of their body systems unrestricted.



Brushing your clients' hair promotes a healthy scalp and strong hair.



Providing daily mouth care prevents the onset of painful mouth conditions and protects the mouth from oral diseases.



Keeping your clients' fingernails trimmed with no ragged edges prevents scratches and cuts that can cause infection.



Reporting toenail changes helps your clients get care from a podiatrist as needed. This can prevent complications for people with diabetes, heart conditions or poor circulation.



Moving your clients' joints and muscles during the grooming process helps maintain body movement and prevents contractures.Clues That MatterDressing and grooming tasks give you daily opportunities to look for clues that trouble may be brewing. For example:



Be aware of clients' facial expressions. Clients may tell you that they have no pain, but their faces may reveal the real story.



Clients get in and out of clothes several times a day. While assisting them, look over the whole body, making note of any areas of redness, rashes, bed sores or other changes in the skin.



Report any unusual body odors. A strange odor may be a symptom of an illness.



Some health conditions cause the body to swell. Watch for signs of swollen hands (such as tight rings) and swollen feet (such as shoes and socks suddenly being too small).



As you brush or comb your client's hair, check for head lice. (Lice can happen to anyone-no matter how young or old, dirty or clean, rich or poor.) Look for white eggs known as "nits". They look like small bits of dandruff, but do not wash or flake off. Instead, they stick firmly to strands of hair.



If you provide nail care, look for white or yellow areas on finger and toe nails. Your client may have a nail fungus.Dressing & Grooming ChallengesFor confused clients, grooming and getting dressed involves a lot of steps and the use of many different skills. It can be a very confusing time. Clients with dementia may be more cooperative if you give them something to do. Let them help by putting toothpaste on a toothbrush, holding a sock while you put on a shoe or folding some washcloths as you brush their hair.Consider using a "mirroring technique" when assisting confused clients. For example, hold a toothbrush and pretend to brush your teeth to help a client understand how to perform the task himself.When clients have shaky limbs, sit and talk to them for a few minutes before starting care since certain types of tremors improve when clients are feeling relaxed. Encourage them to support one arm with the other when performing tasks such as shaving or brushing teeth.To help vision-impaired clients feel in charge, tell them about the styles and/or colors of clothing items and guide their hands to where grooming supplies are kept. Speak up when you are coming and going to keep them aware of their surroundings and to let them know whether they are alone or with others.


Keep in mind that many people with arthritis suffer from "morning stiffness". Their joints may be especially swollen and painful during morning grooming and dressing tasks. Encourage your arthritic clients to dress their legs and feet first as this requires the most energy. Have them sit down for as much of the dressing and grooming process as possible-to save energy and to keep them from having to bend over so far.If a client asks you for a pain pill prior to going through the motions of getting dressed, let a nurse or family member know that the client is in pain and needs attention.Remember that some of your clients may keep quiet about their pain due to fear, their beliefs or their cultural heritage. Be sure to look for non-verbal signs of pain such as:



Clenching or grinding the teeth.



Rubbing or holding a body part.



Crying.



Losing interest in their appearance.



Changes in blood pressure (usually higher).



Sweating.As you assist your clients with personal care, remember that it is your duty to notify your supervisor when you know-or suspect-that a client is in pain. Every client has the right to feel relief from pain!Safety IssuesKeep in mind that some of your clients may find it safer and easier to dress while lying down-especially when it comes to pulling up pants. If a client is weak on one side, encourage him or her to dress the weaker side first.Report frayed wires on grooming devices like hair dryers or electric shavers to keep you and your clients safe.


Consider using a "buddy system" when caring for clients who have a history of being combative. This isn't so you can "gang up" on the client, but so that you can remain safe as you perform client care.Remember that some people feel lightheaded when their body temperature drops. Help your clients maintain an even body temperature by dressing them appropriately for the weather and keeping them away from drafts.Be sure to adjust your clients' clothing when they are seated in wheelchairs to keep the clothes from being pulled into the wheels.The Bottom LineRemember that everyone has the right to participate in his or her own care. So, encourage your clients to get involved in their personal care. Even if they aren't strong enough to get dressed by themselves, they can probably wash their faces or comb their hair.It takes patience and understanding to stand back and let your clients "do for themselves". However, allowing your clients to maintain as much independence as possible when it comes to dressing and grooming can affect their health in a positive way-and enhance their overall quality of life.

How To Clean And Iron Men's Dress Pants Properly




Many males find cleaning of men's dress pants a great challenge. This is especially true when they are made of different materials which require much care. In fact, the presence of stains makes careful washing more difficult to handle.First and foremost, know the fabric of your pants. Check on the inside tag to see the correct washing techniques that match the fabric. Most of the time, dry cleaning is the best option to take in order to avoid damages. Damages at times may be brought about by the use of water. Such is the case for slacks made of silk, cashmere and wool-polyester combination.If you have a number of men's dress pants made of 100% cotton, keep in mind that washing them in warm water will make them shrink. Perhaps, you do not have the means to have them dry cleaned. You can have them machine washed provided that you use cold water. This will keep them from shrinking. Before throwing your slacks into the washing machine, be sure to put together pants with similar colors. Use a gentle detergent to protect the quality of the cotton fiber. Rinse them thoroughly and squeeze out all the water.Although use of washing machine may be advisable for other fabrics, there are some which are best cleaned through hand washing. One reason for that is they are delicate and expensive at the same time. Cleaning a pair of wool dress pants is a perfect example for this. Get a basin of cold water. Add in a tablespoon of mild liquid detergent. Soak the pants for at least five minutes before you rub them with your hands. Rinse them thoroughly with cool water afterwards. Never crumple, pull or tug them so as to remove the water. Doing so can cause them to stretch. Wrap your slacks in a clean towel. Let the towel absorb all the excess water.There are two different styles in letting slacks for men dry. Those made of cotton and linen must always be hung dry. Those made of wool and cashmere must be laid on the floor to dry. Ensure that the floor is clean and that the slacks are turned inside out. Slacks made of silk, polyester and rayon may be hung or laid on the floor to dry.Once dry you can get the wrinkle out of your slacks through ironing. To begin with, have a full-sized ironing board as it is easier to use. You can choose between a regular iron or a steam iron. However, ironing slacks made of cotton or silk is best done with a steam iron. You can have a spray bottle ready too.Before ironing, set the heat of the iron. Keep in mind that men's dress pants made of silk must not be sprinkled with water. Doing so will result to spots on the fabric. Pull your slacks from the waistband to its full length. Start ironing the front side then the back side. Lay the legs flat on the board and iron them one after the other.

The Beautiful Black Dress




It's not very often that you come across a woman's wardrobe without a black dress. When talking women's fashion, black is one of the most commonly used colors. The problem in owning a black dress, however, lies in those of us who find it rather hard to locate the perfect one. Deep black is among the color components in fashion formulae that have the potential to create an illusion. The style and cut of your clothing can also alter your appearance. Although it may be something so simple, pulling off a black dress is possible only if it the dress you choose suits your figure.Keep your lower body's unwanted bumps away!If you're experiencing issues with parts of your lower body, such as your waist and bottom, you must pick up a dress that shifts onlooker's attention towards your upper body and parts such as shoulders and neck. A neckline is very important in a black dress. Look for something that flows smoothly over those bumps, and avoid looking at the tight ones. Lightly or semi puffed sleeves can also help in attracting attention and keeping it away from your body's problem areas. Black dresses that run till the waist can be used for casual outings over regular jeans or leggings.Black Dress Tips for Shorter WomenThe common rule for women who aren't too tall is to prevent floating in your dress. Make sure that you have picked a dress of the right size, with bottom that ends at your knee level. Shorter dresses are great, but keep the longer ones away to avoid looking like you're in a sleeping bag! Longer dresses create an illusion of an even smaller framework, and make you appear shorter than you really are. High heels are recommended on black dresses, especially if you're short as this will help add a few inches. Embellished black dresses must be avoided and plain black must be used instead as they help you appear taller.Tips for the Skinny Ladies with Longer LegsDresses with designs such as embellishments work very well on skinny women that have a smaller bust line. You may experiment with dresses that feature intricate embroideries around the chest, creating an illusion of a fuller bust line. Moreover, the waistline of the dress must fit you perfectly, as wearing dresses with larger waists makes you appear fat! Cool shoes are essential to adding to your glamour.

How to Pack a Bridesmaid Dress For a Flight




So much goes into planning a wedding that often times the smallest issues can be overlooked. One such example is that of bridesmaids who must travel to reach the wedding. What is the best way to pack a formal bridesmaid dress when traveling by plane? And how do you avoid losing your dress in transit? Below are some suggestions for showing up in your bridesmaid dress as if you just stepped out of the showroom.o Roll your dress and pack it like a sleeping bag in your suitcase. Once you arrive at your destination, unroll your dress and hang it up.o Use dry cleaning garment bags, a regular garment bag, or the dress bag that the dress maker sent the dress home in to transport your bridesmaid dress with ease. These kinds of bags are designed to keep wrinkles in clothing to a minimum.o If extra reinforcement is needed, wrap the bridesmaid dress in a large cotton sheet before placing it in the garment bag.o When traveling during inclement weather, add a large industrial garbage bag on the bottom to prevent the dress from accidentally dragging on a wet or dirty floor. Do not pin the bag to the dress; instead, pin or tape it to the garment, dry cleaning, or dress bag already covering the bridesmaid dress.o Call the airline ahead of time and ask if there is any way they can offer a cabin closet for you to hang your dress. They are usually happy to hang a wedding or bridesmaid dress in the first class closet if there is room.o Consider taking your dress as your carry-on item. Again, check with your airline ahead of time to make sure that the bag with your dress in it will fit in the overhead compartment.o Rolling your dress up in a carry-on bag is another way to make sure it doesn't get lost en route and remains wrinkle-free. Not only do you get to keep your it with you for the flight, you can make sure that it's not getting unnecessarily dirty, tossed about, or trampled upon.Once you arrive at your destination, unpack your dress immediately. Minor wrinkles should come out by hanging it in the bathroom while you shower. The steam in the bathroom will help the material loosen and creases should disappear. If, however, you still further help, most hotels, cruises, and laundry services offer pressing for a reasonable price, usually under $20.

How to makeover and dress up for MC




Have you ever dreamt to become a master of ceremonies someday? My sister has just graduated and has become a MC in a media company. She really wonders how to makeover and dress up perfectly in the first time of being MC. However, we are supported very much from a new dress up game for MC. I usually play dress up games every day and get a lot of fun from that. My sister will play with me if she has free time. When she was a kid, she wished to become a master of ceremonies. She said that it was usually a fun job and it would make us more confident in front of the crowds. However, one of the important things is how to choose outfits and way of makeover which is suitable with the events MC joins in. It is difficult for her to select impressive and suitable costumes but this changed when she saw me playing a dress up and makeover game for master of ceremonies. The beautiful and attractive clothes and impressive makeover styles attracted her at the first sight. Why are costumes of MC so important like that though the MC doesn’t always organize the event entirely? The MC may not be the most important of an event; however, they do host the event. It is usually a member of the party who will organize speeches, announce or arrange events, entertainment. Therefore, costumes and ways of making up of MC should be impressive, prominent and notable in front of the crowd. In that new game, my sister found out a lot of fashion style for master of ceremonies. Besides, she has to find some tips in order to become a good MC, in which, confidence is one of the most important factors. Standard body with suitable costumes and makeover tips also helps her more confident and no longer embarrassing. In addition, she had searched some tips from Wikihow to become a good master of the ceremonies. They can be listed here. The key to be a good MC is confident and knowing what’s going on. Next is establishing the contact well in advance of the event day to make sure the schedule and order of events. The preparation will help her focus on interacting with the crowd instead of trying to be entertaining and figure out what’s going on at the same time. Smile constantly and try to be funny are also very important to show the crowd that she is ease and having a good time and they will feel comfortable. She was also reminded that in the first time she was a MC, she will be nervous or mess up, so she should calm down and move on or she can stare at something or do something which will help her less nervous. Besides, she should prepare and writes the main ideas in the small note in advance. That also helps her confident when do actual things. Although dressing up and making up are not all for being a good master of ceremonies, if you have good and impressive appearance, you will get more confident and successful in the role of a ceremonies’ master. Good luck and be successful !
