They serve a number of purposes: health promotion, social propriety and pure pleasure. Traditionally, soap and water have been used for personal hygiene, but in recent years soap and water have increasingly been replaced by the use of disposable wet wipes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>A qualitative study with a hermeneutical\u2010phenomenological approach was chosen to explore and understand patients\u2019 experiences of bed bath methods.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Semi\u2010structured, individual, in\u2010depth interviews with 16 bedridden patients from three wards were conducted.
