> I had to do this for a male geriatric mental patient for a time. I was showering him with the help of a male aide. The male aide was holding him so he wouldn't fall and I was doing the washing. I washed him without doing it and the male aide told me I had to do what I just told you. I was like :wtf:, you can't be serious. First time I did it the old guy let out this evil little chuckle and the male aide just fell out laughing. I could have killed them both. You get used to it after a while.
