As carers, one of the responsibilities is to maintain the patient’s personal hygiene.  

“Keeping dressings dry on skin tears & foot/leg ulcers are a major problem when showering/bathing, to prevent infection and re-dressing.” “According to UK statistics skin tears are usually on arms and hands around 80%, and round 42.5% are on delicate elderly skin.” 

Although waterproof wound dressings are now available, many cautious people opt for additional protection.
