I’m concerned my loved one is not showering enough or is skipping showers. What should I do?

Any staff member at CCAL can assist you in looking at past shower records to determine the last shower date. We never force a resident to shower, but we creatively encourage. We also welcome help from family on these matters. We do our best to help residents stay hygienic while keeping their rights and dignity intact. You may also contact the RN if that will make you more comfortable. If the resident showers independently and is not grooming appropriately, the RN may suggest an increase in care level to assist your loved one with this task.
