Skin and Hand Care in Healthcare

Hand hygiene is a vital part of healthcare, as hands are in constant contact with patients and their surroundings, making them one of the primary routes for the transmission of pathogenic microorganisms.

Although hand disinfection is more effective for infection control, hands are still washed regularly at specific times in professional medical settings. To prevent damage from frequent use and repeated disinfection, regular skin care with suitable products is essential. Special emollient soaps and lotions help prevent dryness and irritation caused by high workloads and frequent hand hygiene.

At Praxisdienst, you can find a wide selection of skin and hand care products, including solutions for dry and sensitive skin.

Soap Dispensers

The use of bar soaps, such as traditional soaps, is not permitted in medical facilities like hospitals, clinics, or care homes due to hygiene regulations. Instead, moisturising hand wash lotions suitable for dry skin are commonly used. To maintain hygienic standards, these should be dispensed from specialised soap dispensers equipped with a lever or sensor, such as the B.Braun Arm Lever Dispenser, to minimise hand contact.

Our selection includes both lever and wall-mounted dispensers, some offering touch-free dispensing for sensitive hand wash lotions, ideal for professional skin care.

Hand Washing Brushes and Washing Gloves

In the Hand Washing Brushes and Gloves category, you will find disposable wash gloves for full-body care of patients, as well as sterile single-use brushes for thorough hand cleaning before surgical procedures. Pre-moistened gloves are also available, suitable for MRSA patient care while protecting sensitive skin.

Skin Care

Medical skin care is a crucial part of personal protective measures for healthcare professionals. Hands frequently exposed to disinfectants require special care. Our range includes high-quality creams for dry hands, such as the Baktolan Care Balm. Whether you need a hand lotion, protective cream, or light emulsion, Praxisdienst has the right product for every skin type, including sensitive skin.

We also offer skin care oils and creams to support wound healing and full-body care.

Hand Wash Lotions and Soaps

Hands should be washed at key times (before starting work, after finishing, and after using the toilet) using a suitable hand wash lotion or medical soap. In our Hand Wash Lotions and Soaps category, you can find a broad selection of gentle, skin-caring products suitable for medical environments, including dry and stressed skin.

We also provide antimicrobial hand wash lotions for hygienic hand washing, such as those from B. Braun and Bode, suitable for antiseptic full-body washing in MRSA cases.
