The nurse should use premoistened disposable wipes instead of toilet paper for perineal care,or mild soap and warm water after each stool.Antibacterial soap would be too abrasive and damage good bacteria on the skin.The nurse should apply a thin layer of a medicated protective barrier after cleaning the skin.The client should be re-positioned frequently so that he or she is kept off the affected area,and open skin areas should be covered with DuoDerm or Tegaderm occlusive dressing to promote rapid healing.
