- One of the more challenging activities of daily life for someone with a tracheostomy tube or ventilator is bathing. Extra precautions should be used to prevent water from entering the tracheostomy tube or splashing on the ventilator. Although extra care is needed, it can still be an enjoyable experience. Join me this week as I discuss how to bathe with a tracheostomy tube or ventilator. #lifewithavent #bathing #ventilator

I appreciate your help, time, and effort. For explaining the things we have to go through it's stressful but we are actually doing it. Thank you much love and peace to you ma'am.
Thank you for your kind words.
Very good tips. Thank you.
Hi hunny, where can I get a shower cap? I’ve never seen them before! Thank you for this information 😊👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hello. The best place to get them is through a medical equipment company.
@@LifewithaVent thanks dear 😀
thanks for the video. i just wonder how you wash your long hairs? it is beautiful. i am also worried how to shower and wash hairs with trach on.
Thank you for your kind words. When i shower, I am careful to keep the shower head away from my trach and I keep my trach covered with a HME. Other than that, I shower just like anyone else.
Hi, my name is Jeffrey and I’m an occupational therapist and ostomy management specialist. I came across your videos during some research for a course I teach on ostomy management (which includes tracheostomy care). Could I have your permission in showing a portion of one of your CZcams videos to better educate health care professionals? Thanks for the consideration! Jeffrey Despommier, OTR, OMS, CUA, ATP
Hello. Thank you for your message. Yes, you may use any of my videos.
is showering still enjoyable with a trach or do you find it stressful?
Showering is still enjoyable.
