In regard to dressing a patient with weakness or paralysis, there are certain procedures you should observe.
- First, without fail, learn what the person can do for themselves and let them do it, even if it takes extra time. A patient should never be treated like a child or doll that we dress and undress. Maintain their independence, no matter how small it might be. Same for bathing.
- Help most with the affected arm or leg. Teach ways the person can do more themselves.
- Assist as needed, but don't assume the person cannot do things.
- Remember the affected side still needs exercise. Help with passive or assisted Range of Motion (ROM).
- Remember that abilities can fluctuate day to day. Assist when needed. ASK "do you need help" rather than jumping in.
