Infection control doesn’t stop at the tub. The Shield™ Splash Guard helps prevent splashes and cross-contamination during resident care, especially when used with utility setups like the Hopper Sink.
Designed for convenience, durability, and hygiene – it’s the simple solution that keeps caregivers protected and workspaces dry.
Infection prevention is mission-critical in senior care.
See how Apollo Bath’s Remedy UV Germicidal Water Purification System – FDA-recognized and clinically proven – helps reduce infection risk and promote safer bathing for both residents and caregivers.

Bariatric hygiene care isn’t just a clinical challenge –it’s an operational and financial one.
42% of U.S. adults are considered obese (CDC).
Bariatric residents represent a growing share of new admissions.
Staff injuries from transfers are one of the leading causes of worker’s comp claims.
Many facilities still rely on undersized tubs or manual workarounds – creating safety risks, compliance red flags, and recurring costs.
At Apollo Bath, every system is engineered to accommodate bariatric-level residents as a standard feature. No costly upgrades. No retrofits. Just safe, compliant bathing solutions that deliver measurable ROI.
📊 Facilities report up to 40% fewer staff injury claims and significant efficiency gains when they upgrade to powered bariatric bathing systems.

International Day of Older Persons reminds us: dignity in care is non-negotiable. Apollo Bath systems are designed to support safe, comfortable, and respectful hygiene for older adults everywhere.
Every year, the CDC reports 234,000+ bathroom-related injuries among U.S. adults — with more than 80% caused by falls. In skilled nursing, 1 in 5 falls leads to hospitalization, putting residents, staff, and your compliance record at risk.
This is why safe bathing best practices in skilled nursing aren’t optional — they’re essential.
In our latest blog, Apollo Bath shares evidence-based strategies to protect residents and support caregivers:
✔ Risk assessments and bathing safety checklists
✔ ADA-compliant equipment and infection-control design
✔ Staff training for transfers, lifts, and dignity in care
✔ Person-centered bathing routines that build trust
✔ Documentation practices aligned with CMS F689
Leadership matters. The communities that prioritize safe bathing see fewer falls, stronger compliance, and better resident satisfaction.
