We have been looking into practices around dementia and sensory issues with our residents reluctance to bath traditionally. We trialled Nilaqua Towel Off Shampoo's and Body Washes as the eco option and this was hugely successful, showing a reduction in stress, aggression and time. We recommend Nilaqua for these situations, not only from an eco perspective but for the health and wellbeing of our patients.
I can't wait for our patients to try it, I am looking forward to ending distressing hair washing times and it's on supply chain which is excellent. I would also like to say we find your hand sanitiser wonderful – no more sore hands, that look and feel like alligator skin – Thank you for developing it.
2022: Gemma attended our Dementia Champions Study Day in March this year. She provided full training on bathing experiences. Explained the difficulties people often have with bathing and how to overcome them. It was great for the staff to learn new methods not just on Nilaqua but other ways of approaching resistance. We highly recommend and have always found Nilaqua supportive and the products really helpful in supporting people with their bathing needs while in an acute hospital environment.
Your products have been a great hit and have worked wonders. Two dementia people and four people at End of Life have been able to have a good wash and hair wash without causing any distress or discomfort. The shampoo has made a huge difference in promoting both dignity and respect. The families are now looking to purchase from you. One family member also added that she felt your products would be great if on a camping holiday.
Thank you so very much for sharing such excellent and innovative products with care providers.
Can I just say how wonderful your product is. The sample which you so kindly gave me has been used with a palliative care client and they were thrilled with the outcome. They said their hair and skin felt really fresh and clean. Thank you again.
His fear of water was relentless and came out of nowhere, he doesn’t like sprinklers or showers. He can only handle it for a short period of time, if at all, and never, ever gets his head wet. Nilaqua is a lifesaver.
