Caregivers play a crucial role in maintaining hygiene for cancer patients:
1. Hand Hygiene: Caregivers should also practice good hand hygiene before and after providing care.
2. Assistance with Daily Activities: Helping the patient with bathing, oral care, and dressing can ensure thorough cleanliness.
3. Environment Cleaning: Keeping the patient's living area clean and disinfected reduces the risk of infections. Regularly cleaning surfaces and changing bed linens are essential.
