How Does the Inflatable Hair Wash Basin Work?

The Inflatable Basin features an intuitive design where the patient puts their head in between the neck cavity, while the carer then washes their hair. To prevent spilling, the water is drained via the drain hose, which can be emptied into a bucket for easy clean up. This eliminates the need for trips to the bathroom where patients are less mobile or fully immobile, allowing everyone to stay clean during their time in care.

Mobility and Accessibility

The Inflatable Basin provides a convenient and accessible solution for individuals with limited mobility who cannot easily access traditional hair washing facilities. This makes it ideal for use on patients with very limited mobility, wanting to stay clean and feel more hygienic. 

Ideal for a Range of Patients

Inflatable basins allow for hair washing without requiring patients to be moved from their beds, reducing the risk of injury and discomfort associated with transferring to a traditional sink or shower. Some examples of patients who would benefit from the Hair Wash Basin include:

• Bedridden Patients
• People with Limited Mobility
• Older People
• Post-Surgery Patients
• People with Physical Disabilities
• Palliative Care Patients

Water Containment

The Atlantis Deluxe contains water, preventing spills and maintaining a clean and controlled environment during the hair-washing process. This enhances patient comfort by preventing water getting on bedding, for a more comfortable experience. This also therefore reduces likelihood of mould and damp, keeping the patient safe as well as comfortable.

Time and Resource Efficiency

This easy to use, inflatable basin improves time and resource efficiency in medical facilities by eliminating the need to transfer patients to a dedicated hair washing area, reducing the time and effort required for such transfers. This streamlined process allows caregivers to provide necessary hair care services directly at the patient's bedside, for patient dignity and saving carers precious time. Additionally, the Hair Wash Basin simplifies clean up and maintenance with its drain pipe for emptying into a container or bucket, contributing to overall operational efficiency in a medical setting.

Comfort and Dignity

The Deluxe Inflatable Basin enhances comfort and dignity in medical facilities by enabling patients, especially those with limited mobility, to receive hair care while remaining in their beds. This approach minimizes the disruption to patients' routines and reduces the potential embarrassment associated with moving to a separate washing area. By preserving a sense of privacy and autonomy, the inflatable basin contributes to the overall well-being and dignity of patients in a medical setting.
