Common Equipment in Cleaning, Washing and Ironing

1. Flat Iron 2. Check the label of every garment before ironing.
This is necessary as some fabrics need special care
instructions.
3. Unfold your ironing board near the outlet. Plug in
your iron and choose the appropriate setting based
on the material of the clothes you are ironing.
4. Preheating the flat iron should be done before
starting. You will have to wait about 2-5 minutes
to let the iron warm up.
5. Place and arrange the garment across the ironing
board before you start ironing.
6. Unplug the iron and do not store if it is still hot.
2. Washing Machine 1. The very first step in washing is sorting the clothes.
Separate white and light color from dark-colored
clothes. Also, they should be sorted according to
their material.
2. Wash clothes with heavy fabrics together and
clothes with light fabrics together.

specifies or to the top row of holes in the tub.
6. Close the lid and choose the setting of the washing
machine according to what you are washing.
7. Turn on the machine. Let the unit work through all
of the cycles. Wait for the machine to turn off
before you unload the washed laundry.
8. Load the next batch of clothes and do steps 5 and 6
 again until you are done with the laundry.
9. Turn off and unplug the unit.

Common Equipment in Taking Vital Signs

Are you discovering more! The next will be the most useful
eequipment and paraphernalia for checking your patient or client’s Vital Signs.

When caring for an infant, toddler, child, elderly or person with special
needs, measuring the vital signs should be taken with proper care. This module
will lead you to the basic knowledge of taking vital signs. As you learn the
different processes, you will also perform taking vital signs.

But first, let us talk about vital signs. Vital signs are bodily functions
that reflect the body’s state of health and are easily measurable. These are body
temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure. In some
cases, the pain that a person experiences is considered to be the fifth vital sign.

Have you seen doctors and nurses wearing their stethoscopes? Do you
like to be one of them in the future?

Let us identify the paraphernalia that are important in diagnosing

patient’s condition:

1. Thermometer

Body temperature is a measurement of the amount of heat in the

body. The balance between heat produced and heat lost is the body
temperature. The normal adult body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius.
There is a normal range in which a person’s body temperature may vary
and still be considered normal.
Take a look at these normal ranges of body temperature:
Oral : 36.4 to 37.2 degrees Celsius
Rectal : 37 to 37.8 degrees Celsius
Axillary : 35.9 to 36.7 degrees Celsius

The following are the different types of thermometers:

1. Clinical thermometer  may be inserted either into the rectum through
the anus (rectal temperature), into the mouth
under the tongue (oral or sub-lingual) or armpit
(axillary temperature).

 It is made of glass with a narrowing above the

bulb so that the mercury column stays in
position even when the instrument is removed
but the use of this type is now being eradicated
as the mercury content is dangerous to people.
 2. Digital thermometer  may be inserted into the mouth under the
tongue, under the armpit or into the anus.

 This thermometer displays the reading in the

LCD. This type of thermometer does not use
mercury which is hazardous to humans. That is
why more and more people are using it now.

 using this is simple, quick and effective.

3.Ear digital  measures the heat coming from the eardrum.

thermometer This release of heat is converted into a
temperature and displayed on an LCD.

 It is very easy to use because you just have to

place the tip in the ear of a person, press the
button and in a few seconds, the measurement
is seen on the LCD.
2. Infrared  measures temperature using thermal radiation
thermometer with emitted by the body.
laser pointer
 It is also called laser thermometer which a laser
is utilized to aid in aiming the temperature.

 Others call it non-contact thermometer because

of its ability to measure temperature from a
distance.

 It provides temperature reading without

physically touching the object.

 All you have to do is aim at the object (as in the

forehead), pull the trigger and immediately, you
can see the temperature reading on the LCD.

3. BP Apparatus

Another important measurement that you should learn to take is the

blood pressure. Blood pressure is the force of the blood pushing against the
walls of the blood vessels. The heart contracts as it pumps the blood into the
arteries. When the heart is contracting, the pressure is highest. This pressure
is what we know as the systolic pressure. Now, as the heart relaxes between
each contraction, the pressure decreases. When the heart is at its most relaxed
state, the pressure is lowest. And we call this diastolic pressure. The following
steps will help you measure blood pressure accurately.

Before taking the Blood Pressure of the patient always wash hands and
prepare the equipment you will use.

1. Introduce yourself and let the patient or client know the procedure to be
done.
2. Sanitize the earpieces of the stethoscope with an antiseptic pad.
 3. Ask your client to rest quietly. Have him/her lie down or sit on a chair
whichever is more comfortable for him/her.
4. If you are using a mercurial apparatus, the measuring scale should be
within the level of your eyes.
5. Expose the arm of your client by rolling the sleeves up. Have your
client’s arm from the elbow down to rest fully extended on the bed or the
arm of a chair.
6. Unroll the cuff, loosen the screw and squeeze the cuff with your hands to
remove air completely.
7. Wrap the cuff around your client’s arm above the elbow, not too tight or
too loose.
8. Find your client’s brachial pulse at the inside of the elbow. Hold the
diaphragm there and inflate the cuff until the pulse disappears. Take
note of the reading and immediately deflate the cuff. This is the client’s
approximate systolic reading and is called the palpated systolic pressure.
9. Place the stethoscope’s earpieces into your ears and place the diaphragm
on the brachial pulse.
10.Turn the screw to close it. Inflate the cuff until the dial points to 30 mm
above the palpated systolic pressure.
11.Turn the screw to open it. Let the air escape slowly until the sound of
the pulse comes back. Take note of the calibration that the pointer
passes as you hear the first sound. This indicates the systolic pressure.
12.You have to continue releasing the air from the cuff. When you hear the
sounds change to something softer and faster and disappear, take note of
the calibration. This is now the diastolic pressure
13.Deflate the cuff complete. Remove it from the arm of your client and
record the reading on the client’s chart.
14.Wipe the earpieces of the stethoscope with cotton and alcohol and place
the equipment back to their proper place and wash your hands.

Let us learned the estimated Normal Blood Pressure for Age

Age Normal Systolic Range Normal Diastolic Range

Adolescent (14–18 years) 90–120 mm Hg 50–80 mm Hg

Adult (19–40 years) 95–135 mm Hg 60–80 mm Hg

Adult (41–60 years) 110–145 mm Hg 70–90 mm Hg

Older adult (61 and

95–145 mm Hg 70–90 mm Hg
older)
