DermAssist TotalBath Shampoo Cap with Conditioner
The DermAssist TotalBath Shampoo Cap with Conditioner is a great alternative for the more traditional basin hair washing methods, eliminating the need for water and moving the patient. Sometimes it’s impractical to move a patient to an area with running water so their hair can be washed, and sometimes a patient has bathing restrictions or is required to keep an incision dry for a period of time. Featuring a pH balanced rinse-free formula with the shampoo and conditioner combined, this cap enables the hair and scalp to be cleaned and conditioned in one quick and easy step. This cap conveniently comes ready to use and can be warmed to further increase patient satisfaction levels.
