Comfort Bath® Cleansing Washcloths
Published studies have shown a proven link between basins, MDROs and CAUTIs and hospital tap water has the potential to be contaminated.1,2 In addition to the infection risk, you may have heard patients complain about cold, rough cloths that are often used with basin baths. Comfort Bath® Cleansing Washcloths are the hygienic standard for prepackaged bathing.3 They eliminate the contamination risk from basins, provide comfortable, skin-friendly benefits to your patients and can help your facility comply with CDC infection control guidelines and improve patient satisfaction.

Bathing your patient is more than a basic task. From conducting a skin inspection to addressing their skin’s bioflora, the patient bathing process is a vital nursing intervention. Comfort Bath Cleansing Washcloths can help standardize your patient hygiene protocol, reduce steps and eliminate basins with rinse-free, full-body skin cleansing and moisturizing.
In a study presented at the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC), infection control practitioners eliminated the bedside basin from catheterized patients and within a month, the incidence of CAUTIs was reduced to zero.4

Comfort Bath eliminates the contamination risk from bath basins and helps facilities comply with CDC infection control guidelines.1 With over 75% of the market, Comfort Bath products are trusted by more hospitals than all other prepackaged bathing products combined!2 Comfort Bath’s formula contains USP purified water,3 so you never have to worry about contaminated tap water. These disposable washcloths also eliminate cross- contamination because each body area is cleansed separately. An AJCC study found that Comfort Bath effectively cleaned while offering fewer opportunities to recontaminate the skin.4
Comfort Bath’s pH mirrors that of healthy skin, and our dermatologist-tested formula is proven gentle and non- irritating.5 The ultra-soft, thick washcloth delivers the right amount of cleanser and moisturizer to the skin.
Comfort Bath’s premoistened, rinse-free washcloths deliver hygienic cleansing in one step. And it’s been found to be more comfortable and easy to use than the basin bath. One hospital study found 96% of patients said they preferred Comfort Bath over the basin. 100% felt clean afterward, 96% said their skin felt soft, and 97% said it was warm, comfortable and easy to use.6 Another study showed Comfort Bath was preferred over the basin by 100% of nurses, who stated it saved time, was easy to administer and left their patients feeling clean and satisfied.7
After one facility stopped using Comfort Bath and returned to the basin bath to save money, it saw 23 additional UTIs, 151 additional hospital days and a cost of $107,741!8
