Rubbing Sheet Substitute For The Half-bathCategory: TREATMENT OF OTHER FEVERS Source: Hydriatic Treatment Of Scarlet Fever In Its Different Forms It cannot be difficult to procure a wash-tub. Should you be so situated, however, as not to be able to procure even this, you will be compelled to make shift with a _rubbing sheet_. For that purpose, a sheet and a pail of water are all you need. The sheet is wetted in the pail and slightly wrung out. The patient steps on a piece of oil-cloth or carpet, and you throw your wet-sheet over him and rub, as before indicated. When the sheet is warm, you dip it in the pail again, and repeat the process, and thus you go on, till the patient is sufficiently cooled. If you can have two pails of water, it will be better than one, as the water becomes warm after having changed the sheet a couple of times. Next: Where There Is A Will There Is A Way!
