TENA takes<br />
special care<br />
of skin<br />
TENA is a name better known for<br />
continence products but did you know<br />
they are also the skincare specialists.<br />
Continence and skincare are closely<br />
linked, skin breakdown can be caused by<br />
the repeated wetting and drying of the<br />
skin with the affected area being more<br />
susceptible to damage.<br />
Lanna Ramsay, head of Ozcare Aged<br />
Care used the TENA skincare range on<br />
her father “My father has always had very<br />
sensitive skin and is prone to easy bruising.<br />
As he is quite active and he often gives<br />
himself small skin tears, and sometimes<br />
big., I have had him using TENA Wash<br />
Cream and Skin Lotion for about three<br />
years. Over that time, there has been a<br />
significant improvement in his skin and a<br />
decreased number of small skin tears”<br />
Traditional soap and water can also be<br />
very harsh on delicate skin, and conditions<br />
like Incontinence Associated Dermatitis<br />
(IAD) can be painful however the TENA<br />
3-in-1 range does not require soap or water<br />
to cleanse and ensures that the skin is<br />
cleaned, protected and moisturised.<br />
Daily checklist for healthy skin:<br />
✓✓<br />
Prevention is the best treatment, cleanse<br />
the body daily<br />
✓✓<br />
Cleanse the skin well when using the<br />
toilet or after every pad change<br />
✓✓<br />
Moisturise the skin after cleansing to<br />
avoid dehydration and form a protective<br />
barrier<br />
✓✓<br />
Protect the genital area (perineum<br />
specifically) with a barrier cream if area<br />
is exposed to regular faecal or urinary<br />
incontinence<br />
