PARKER

HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE

RECLINING SIT BATH

...with people in mind

A quicker, better bathing cycle Bathing with Parker takes far less time compared to a conventional bath. Every aspect of the unique bathing cycle is designed to save time. The Auto-fill feature enables the bath to be filled to a pre-set level while the caregiver prepares the resident.

Improve efficiency After appropriate training, a single caregiver can safely manage the entire bathing cycle. The easy to operate system ensures efficient bathing routines.

Side-entry access to the bath and mobile aid integration mean smooth transfers and no manual lifting.

Ensure optimum disinfection Parker has an integrated disinfection system – the most time-efficient solution for disinfection of the bath’s external surfaces and internal Air Spa system.

Height adjustability and the reclining function ensures the caregiver can always work close to the resident in a comfortable posture and that the bath is at the correct working height.

SAVING TIME WITH PARKER

A WELL-PROVEN ANSWER

FOR ASSISTED BATHING

The bathing cycle

A complete cycle from resident collection in the bedroom to return after bathing: average time, 30-40 minutes.

System hygiene

A comprehensive cleaning and disinfection routine using the integrated disinfection system: average time, 15 minutes.

Ready for the next resident

The total bathing cycle and disinfection time means that, on average, after the bathing cycle and disinfection, Parker is ready for the next resident’s bathing session.

Benefit from time-savings

• More time for high-quality one-to-one care for the resident.

• An optimum number of bathing sessions per day in healthcare facilities.

System integration is a vital part of the Parker concept. Integration with ArjoHuntleigh mobile aids ensures an efficient transfer solution for individual resident’s needs, creating a total solution for the bathing cycle.

Parker is a height-adjustable reclining sit bath designed for the safe and efficient assisted bathing and showering of adult residents in healthcare facilities. In mobility terms, the system is suitable for the residents Albert, Barbara, Carl and Doris in the Mobility Gallery™ (see back page).

Easy access Ambulatory residents, such as Albert, require minimum or no assistance, seating themselves easily through the full-length side opening, which also optimizes access for transfer of residents such as Barbara and Carl who may require assistance from an active lifter. Doris may need the help of a passive lifter, such as a ceiling lift. In cases like this, the workflow will improve if the door is closed.

Full compatibility Parker is fully compatible with a number of ArjoHuntleigh support aids and active and passive lifters, namely

selection of standing and raising aids to suit all needs.

• Maxi Sky 600® – efficient ceiling lift systems.

Activating mobility This range of integrated transfer solutions means an aid can be selected that not only provides the necessary support, but also encourages residents to participate in the transfer and activate existing mobility.

Full integration with mobile aids improves efficiency and saves time while providing safe, comfortable conditions for the resident and caregiver throughout the bathing cycle.

SYSTEM INTEGRATION

OPTIMIZES TRANSFERS

Taking a bath makes you feel good, both physically and mentally. It is a pleasant experience for the senses that contributes to wellness. So why is bathing not more widely available for residents in healthcare facilities?

Healthcare facilities can use bathing sessions to improve the quality of residents’ lives with benefits such as relaxation, improved circulation, pain relief and enhanced mobility.

At some healthcare facilities the perceived practical barriers to assisted bathing – the time factor, staff resources and cross-infection risks – deny residents access to bathing.

Make benefits accessible Bathing benefits should be available to all. Parker is a well-proven system that makes efficient assisted bathing accessible and affordable.

BATHING BENEFITS ARE

WELL WITHIN REACH

With its innovative reclining design, Parker provides a streamlined, labor-saving, time-efficient bathing cycle.

Gain from enhancements Parker combines efficiency and efficacy, offering safe, relaxing bathing conditions to ensure maximum benefits for mind and body. The latest version of the continuously developed Parker concept offers new features to further enhance ease of operation and the bathing experience.

Color As well as traditional white with blue or grey trim, we offer tubs in pastel shades – Pastel Blue, Pastel Green, Ivory and Cream – to blend in with today’s more subtle color schemes and contribute to a calming atmosphere in the bathroom.

CREATING A MULTI-SENSORY ENVIRONMENT

This pleasant colorful underwater lighting and soft music stimulus enhances the power of bathing to calm stressed or anxious patients and residents. As calmer patients require less care resources, Sound & Vision™ creates benefits that are felt beyond the bathroom.

The Sound & Vision experience can be enjoyed by people of all ages who would benefit from greater relaxation. Using the system can help you to create a calm multi-sensory bathroom environment in harmony with the Snoezelen philosophy.

OPTIONS

Air Spa For resident’s individual preferences, Parker offers a variable speed Air Spa that blows air into the bath water through nine strategically placed jets, allowing residents a gentle relaxing spa on a low level setting or a more invigorating massage sensation on a higher level. Five jets in the footwell can enhance soothing podiatry care sessions.

Sound A USB memory stick with MP3 files provides soft music in the tub during bathing sessions. Favorite songs or relaxing music can be chosen to provide the right ambience for a particular person’s needs.

Light The underwater light is mounted in the front end of the tub. A remote control allows you to select a single color or move smoothly through the spectrum of colors.

NEW FEATURES

Sound & Vision

The built-in system provides colored underwater light and MP3 music selection.

6 7

Hand Control

As well as raising, lowering and tilting the tub, the hand control can now control Air Spa settings.

Shower Handle & Holder Advanced Safety Features

A new lock button feature means continuous water flow without holding in the trigger.

5 6 7 Versatile Tub Direction

The stand-alone tub can be fitted to point in either direction, allowing flexibility for fitting pipes.

The risk of cross-infection is a cause for concern in healthcare facilities, especially when hygiene systems are communal.

An integrated disinfection system provides the most efficient disinfection routines.

In healthcare facilities, residents with weakened immune systems are particularly at risk to cross-infection. It is therefore essential that thorough disinfection and cleaning routines are performed between bathing sessions to reduce cross-infection risks.

A built-in solution The most time-efficient and labor-saving method for satisfactory cleaning and disinfecting Parker, is the integrated disinfection system.

INTEGRATED DISINFECTION

This new system consists of a built-in disinfectant spray handle, a disinfectant bottle and an adjustable disinfectant delivery system.

Clean: inside and out Disinfection routines are simple and efficient using ArjoHuntleigh cleaning agents and disinfectants. Once the tub surfaces have been sprayed, the spray handle is connected to the disinfectant inlet for disinfection of the internal Air Spa system.
