There are many "creative" ways to getting Mom to take a bath or shower. Getting a person to take a bath who does not want to demands approaches that "fits" the patient. For instance if the person is religious pose the question - you always want to bathe before church, right? If being naked is a problem allow them to wear a gown or bathing suit. Bed baths are wonderful ways to bath someone who is resistant as each part of the body is covered until it is being washed. Eventually, they are washed. Make sure the caregiver approaches Mom with cues that will let her know what they would like her to do. For example what you would like them to do with the bar of soap or towel and demonstrate if necessary. Hopefully they have a non-institutional bath that is not frightening to Mom. If the caregiver needs more help in learning different approaches to use the Alzheimer's Association can help. Resource: Caring.com
