Erler-Zimmer geriatric care manikin, special model, geriatric care with catheter

With the option of male and female catheterization, this special model offers valuable support in geriatric nursing training. It is the ideal companion for teachers as it enables them to practise all relevant care procedures realistically. The care mannequin is faithfully modeled on the appearance of an elderly person, including specific body features such as moles (normal and altered), skin inflammation under the female breast and a decubitus wound. These details significantly increase the didactic value of the model.

The following care measures can be practiced with the model:

• Catheterization of female and male patients (with interchangeable genitals)
• Prostate examination (stage B)
• Ostomy care (ileostomy and colostomy)
• Tracheostoma care (irrigation and suction)
• Care of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG)
• Replacement of dentures (upper and lower jaw)
• Administration of eye drops
• Personal hygiene
• Hair care
• Storage techniques
• Oral and nasal rinses
• Intramuscular injections (at 4 injection sites)
