Greetings everyone!

Good day Ma’am DJ, I am Una Yvonne Domantay from BSN II-02 Group 8 and today I
am going to demonstrate how bathing a newborne is being done.

Before anything else, let us first make sure that we have our equipments ready, So I have in here the materials
already prepared. Such as the bath tub or the basin, the towel, Cotton balls, wash cloth, mild soap, comb, diaper,
new set of clothes, the blanket for swaddling and of course our clean gloves.

Now that we have gathered all the equipments we’ll be needing later on, let us now do the hand hygiene to
prevent the spread of microorganisms and avoid contamination.

And now that we’re all ready let us meet the client. Good morning ma’am. I am Yvonne Domantay po your
student nurse Manila doctors College of Nursing and You can call me Yvonne. To verify lang po, can iask for
your full name po. Okay thank you po how about yor baby’s full name po? Okay po, b=ano po ang birthday ni
baby?

Okay Salamat po

Kamusta naman po kayo ma’am? Okay that’s good to hear po. So ma’am I’m going to give bath to your baby
po is it okay for you po? Okay thank you po, don’t worry because this will not take long naman po and it’s for
the benefit of the baby. This procedure will prevent infection to your baby, stimulate circulation, keep your
baby’s skin clean, induce sleep, minimize changes in her body temp, provides tactile stimulation and gives me a
chance na rin po to observe your baby for any problems po.

Okay po ma’am? Naiintindihan naman po? Okay po questions po s o far? Okay wala naman po. let me just
