Mattress Pads and Incontinence Sheet Sets - Caring For Aged Parents

Incontinence mattress pads and sheet sets are indispensable to most elderly people. As people age, it is inevitable that their bodies will bit by bit subvert and degenerate in many ways, making them more and more susceptible to physical maladies that can affect every organ in their body. There is no escape with the distressful pragmatism of aging. An elderly must try to come to terms with this reality.While it is true that children owe not any legal obligation to care for old and disabled parents, as Asians it has long been the norm for us to adapt and nurse the aged parents in our homes as far as possible. Filial piety is an important factor in caring for the aged in our traditional Asian Society.Welfare homes and their environment are not places conducive to the accommodation of aged parents. Placing a parent in an Old Folks Home is a sensitive issue. It can provoke guilt of ingratitude and could mean abandonment. Sometimes children seldom or rarely visit their parents after they have been placed in welfare homes. There have been numerous cases in which old people have been neglected by their children or relatives.Although somewhat expensive, a nursing home offers the most satisfactory alternative. Long term institutionalization is essential for appropriate care of a debilitated elderly. It may be a painful issue but everyone must understand that there is no better choice.Can nursing homes help the elderly? Some doctors prefer to call it "God's Waiting Room." People say that on the whole most qualified nursing homes are pleasant. The problem is the limited number of nurses. After the elderly are cleaned, fed and given medication, there is very little exercise. It is the visit of the family that can make the elderly the happiest.It is not an easy job to care for aged persons particularly if they are incontinent. Statistics show that twenty percent of Americans over 65 years of age are incontinent. Urinary incontinence is unintentional loss of urine that is sufficient enough in frequency and amount to cause physical and/or emotional distress in the person experiencing it.Hospitals and nursing homes are the major consumers of mattress pads and bed sheets designed for incontinence. The mattress pads used have plastic backing that protects the mattress from fluid. Large rubber bedsheets are often used as mattress toppers. The disadvantage of this type is the moisture simply transfers back to the other bed sheets causing in all blankets and bedclothes being saturated causing nighttime waking. A bedfast elderly cannot just come up with this mess alone at the middle of the night.The aspect of caring for the aged parents requires collective responsibility. It will instill respect for the elderly as there is no better institution to care for the aged parents other than the family itself.PureComfortLinens.com, the ecommerce outlet of Vicera Enterprises, Inc., a duly registered corporation, offers a wide variety of high quality bedding and accessories for every bedroom in your house.
