  • Healthy Toileting Practices
    Healthy Toileting Practices Bowel movements: Start a toilet time routine. Choose a specific time during the day when your child will sit on the toilet to pass a bowel movement (make a poop) and have them use the toilet at the same time every day. The body is usually ready for a bowel movement 20-30 minutes after eating, so a good time to try would be after breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Your child’s stool (poop) should be soft and easy to pass, and look like a snake or sausage. To help your child have regular bowel movements, they should eat fruits and vegetables, and drink plenty of water. If your child is constipated they will be unable to have a bowel movement or have painful and difficult bowel movements. Please call us with any questions or concerns about constipation. Hygiene and proper cleaning are important. Please remember to wipe from “front to back”. Urination: Remind your child to sit on the toilet AT LEAST every 3 hours, or more often if they need to. Give your child enough time to sit on the toilet and try to urinate (pee). Remind your child not to rush while they urinate. Ask your child to breathe deeply and take their time when trying to urinate to relax the pelvic floor (no squeezing or pushing with the tummy). Ask them to take deep breaths and blow out the air slowly to help them relax. Double voiding: Try to have your child urinate. After your child urinates and says they are “finished”, wipe them from front to back and ask them to stand up and move around and then sit back down on the toilet and try again.

  • Thesis Strzelecka.Pdf (7.251Mb)
    School of Engineering and Sustainable Development One Utility for Sustainable Communities Modelling and Optimisation of Utility–Service Provision Anna Strzelecka Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November, 2017 Abstract Utility–service provision is a process in which products such as water, electricity, food, gas are transformed by appropriate devices into services satisfying human needs such as nutrition, thermal comfort, and wants such as e.g. entertainment. Utility products required for these processes are usually delivered to households via separate infrastructures, i.e. real-world networks such as electricity grids, wa- ter distribution systems or gas distribution networks. Additionally, they can be supplemented sourced locally from natural resources, e.g. electricity can be ob- tained from sun or wind. The main objectives of the research are to numerically evaluate feasibility of alternative approaches to utility–service provision prob- lems and automatically generate suggestions of such alternative approaches, using knowledge base of present and future technologies and devices. These objectives are achieved via a simulation system implemented in C# and .NET 4.0 that is composed of the following blocks: an interface to define the utility–service provision problem (problem formulation), an interface to define candidate solu- tions (transformation graphs), a computational engine to analyse the feasibility of transformation graphs, a heuristic search algorithm to generate transformation graphs and a XML database. The core of the proposed approach is a simulation system that carries out a feasibility study of transformation graphs. A transformation graph describes direct and indirect transformations of products into defined services or other products using various devices.

  • The Move® Toileting Program
    INTRODUCTION THE MOVE® HYGIENE & TOILETING PROGRAM The Need Do you know . ─The “toileting” issue is a primary reason people are placed in nursing homes? ─People with “toileting” issues are confined to their homes/institutions with less opportunities then to get out into their communities. ─Care providers who change the diapers experience more back injuries, stress, frustration and low morale. ─There is a lack of dignity for large people when using change tables or the floor to change their diapers/briefs. Obviously, it is especially challenging to address the “toileting” issue with large children and adults. Changing diapers on larger people is physically exhausting. Lifting a person to a change table can be accomplished with a mechanical lift, but even this is difficult and time consuming. Once the person is on a change table, the person’s body must be turned and manipulated for the removal of the diaper, cleaning and replacement of the diaper and clothing. Of course, public restrooms do not even have changing tables for larger people. The Rational and Purposes Early studies indicate many people with severe, multiple disabilities are actually capable of using a toilet on a schedule if given the opportunity to demonstrate continence. Unfortunately, many people who are beyond infancy or who cannot help with transfers are not ever given the opportunity. And to be fair, care provider time and strength is limited. The rational and purposes of the MOVE Hygiene & Toileting Program are: 1. To provide a comprehensive toileting program designed to meet the needs of people with severe, multiple disabilities as well as provide instructions for care providers on how to use the program.

  • 2 the Robo-Toilet Revolution the Actress and the Gorilla
    George, Rose, 2014, The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why It Matters (pp. 39-64). Henry Holt and Co.. Kindle Edition. 2 THE ROBO-TOILET REVOLUTION THE ACTRESS AND THE GORILLA The flush toilet is a curious object. It is the default method of excreta disposal in most of the industrialized, technologically advanced world. It was invented either five hundred or two thousand years ago, depending on opinion. Yet in its essential workings, this everyday banal object hasn’t changed much since Sir John Harington, godson of Queen Elizabeth I, thought his godmother might like something that flushed away her excreta, and devised the Ajax, a play on the Elizabethan word jakes, meaning privy. The greatest improvements to date were made in England in the later years of the eighteenth century and the early years of the next by the trio of Alexander Cumming (who invented a valve mechanism), Joseph Bramah (a Yorkshireman who improved on Cumming’s valve and made the best lavatories to be had for the next century), and Thomas Crapper (another Yorkshireman who did not invent the toilet but improved its parts). In engineering terms, the best invention was the siphonic flush, which pulls the water out of the bowl and into the pipe. For the user, the S-bend was the godsend, because the water that rested in the bend created a seal that prevented odor from emerging from the pipe. At the height of Victorian invention, when toilets were their most ornate and decorated with the prettiest pottery, patents for siphonic flushes, for example, were being requested at the rate of two dozen or so a year.

  • 4160 Procedure 2 Diapering and Toileting
    Provo City School District Policy Series 3000: Students 4160 P2 Special Education and Related Services for Eligible Students: Toileting/Diapering Students may require diapering or help toileting due to developmental level or health, physical or cognitive disabilities. These students may require diapering or toileting on a scheduled or on an “as needed” basis. These tasks should be performed with dignity and respect for the student in a private and safe setting. Students cannot be denied entry into or removed from any educational program if they have not mastered this skill. Due to the wide range of disabilities, both physical and cognitive, and the various ages and physical sizes of students who require these services, these procedures should be tailored to each individual student’s specific needs. The school nurse, physical/occupational therapist, teacher or parent can provide training. The student may have special needs requiring specific procedures. This information should be included in the IEP or 504 plan. Staff involved in changing diapers or toileting have the potential to spread germs and diseases. Following proper procedures and room set-up will reduce the risk of spreading illnesses. All staff involved in toileting and/or diapering must complete the Blood-borne Pathogen Training yearly. Parents are responsible for supplying diapers, wipes, a change of clothing and other necessary supplies for their child. District will supply approved cleaners/wipes for surfaces, gloves and other protective equipment as needed. Staff involved in diapering/toileting should receive the hepatitis B vaccine. Staff who prepare or serve food may not change diapers or assist in toilet training.

  • TOILETING by Sarah Moudry
    TOILE T ING by Sarah Moudry Functional independence in toilet training involves muscle control, the awareness and desire to stay dry, and the child’s ability to dress them- selves. This is a natural and gradual process beginning at home, and Sarah Moudry gives clear and encouraging ideas for supporting this process at school once the child is walking. Only through freedom and environmental experience is it practically possible for human development to occur. (Montessori 89) The concept of toilet awareness seems to be a new one in our culture. This is not to say that potty training is new; this concept has been around for some time and has become the typical phrase used for helping young children learn to use the toilet. However, within the concept of toilet awareness, using the toilet is actually just part of the final stages. In order to be successful in anything, one must be surrounded by information and opportunity. Children must be introduced to the idea of using the toilet as early as possible (even from birth) in order to make it a normal and typical expectation. Preparing to use the toilet is much like hanging pictures of the alphabet in a baby’s When expectations around using the toilet room or reading books are set before the age of two, a child is based on the alphabet. much more likely to willingly participate Parents don’t decorate and be using the toilet independently by this way because they the age of two and a half. expect that the child is Sarah Moudry is a lead teacher in a half-day, infant community classroom and a parent-infant class facilitator at The Post Oak School, Houston, TX.
