The aging boomer population has been a catalyst for many new products, but one product that has seen a significant rise in popularity is adult washcloths. They are especially popular in nursing home settings, as well as for people who provide care for the elderly in their own home. Their ease of use and the disposability of these products have helped to provide less work for the caregiver, as well as a healthier environment for all involved.

One of the most popular cloths in the marketplace for caregivers is disposable Aloe Vera washcloths. Although this cloth can be used at normal room temperatures, many patients like to have them warmed up. Warming the cloths provides a soothing environment for the patient. They can easily be heated in a microwave in less than a minute and are then ready for immediate use. These are excellent for bathing the patient in bed, helping to remove perspiration, dead skin cells as well as other debris. The Aloe Vera also provides a skin conditioner for the patient, so that their skin does not feel dry and rough to the touch. These washcloths are also available in other scents as well as non-scented ones.

For patients who have special needs in the perineal area, adult washcloths can be purchased that are an easy to use and at the same time provide cleansing. Far more importantly they help to moisturize, deodorize and provide a barrier protection. They are an effective tool in helping to prevent dermatitis in the perineal area, which can be a serious issue. They can be purchased with dimethicone that helps to provide skin protection by keeping wetness away from the skin. This effectively protects the patient from irritation. They too can be heated in a microwave to provide the patient with the extra comfort of heat.

Women who suffer from incontinence use adult washcloths to help keep them fresh during the day. They are great for delicate skin and usually can be purchased with moisturizers. These cloths also have the benefit of helping to eliminate embarrassing odors, so that women never need to worry when out in public. These are also extremely important for women to use in order to prevent dermatitis that is associated with incontinence. They are available in large packages or handy small ones, that will fit in any woman's purse.

Adult washcloths are also available in the regular dry packages. These multi-purpose towelettes are great for general cleanup of spills and they have the added benefit of not needing to be washed. This helps to save the caregiver from laundry tasks so that more time can be spent providing patient care. They're also handy cleaning clothes for everyday chores around the home and are a great thing to carry in the car when travelling. They are an excellent substitute for towels at the gym and are super absorbent.

With the advent of these adult washcloths in the marketplace, they have given women a new sense of freedom, to be just as active as they were before incontinence problems started. They can no go out and have complete confidence that they are protected, as well as knowing that they will always smell fresh. Caregivers like the level of protection for their patients, while at the same time they appreciate the time it can save them. No longer do they have to use special creams and ointments which end up being harder to clean. With these new washcloths being disposable they can spend more time caring for their patient. These cloths are a win/win for everyone and have quickly replaced the old fashioned solutions of the past.
