Skin cleaning should be performed in various situations, including:
Before Invasive Procedures: Cleaning the skin before invasive procedures like catheter insertions and surgeries is essential to reduce infection risk. During Routine Care: Regular skin care and hygiene should be part of daily routines to maintain skin integrity and prevent breakdown. After Exposure to Contaminants: Immediate cleaning is necessary if the skin comes into contact with contaminants or bodily fluids.
