SCRAM CAM Hygiene Best Practices

To help decrease the possibility of skin irritation, rashes, or infections developing on your SCRAM CAM clients’ ankles, encourage them to exercise a daily cleansing routine. SCRAM Systems strongly recommends clients follow these steps to wash their ankles under and around the device:

  1. Apply soap to a clean, damp washcloth and wash your ankle by inserting the washcloth between the device and your skin, and then removing it.
  2. Repeat the motion until all areas between the device and your ankle have been washed.
  3. When you are done cleaning your ankle, rinse the area off to remove the soap.
  4. Lastly, use a dry washcloth or towel to thoroughly dry underneath and around the device.
Wash the skin around the ankle with a washcloth, rinse, and dry the area completely
WarningWARNINGS:
  • The device should not be submerged under water – showers are recommended.
  • If your client has a specific health condition or concern, be sure they discuss it with you, their supervising authority, and/or a medical practitioner.
