How to Fill Out Scabies Prep:

1. Gather all necessary materials: before starting the scabies prep, make sure you have all the required items. These usually include a scabies treatment cream or lotion, clean towels and sheets, a bathtub or shower, and disposable gloves.
2. Follow the instructions: carefully read and follow the instructions that come with the scabies treatment. These instructions may vary depending on the specific product you are using, so it is essential to adhere to them accurately.
3. Prepare the affected area: before applying the scabies treatment, it is crucial to clean and dry the affected area thoroughly. Take a lukewarm shower or bath to cleanse your skin and ensure it is free from any dirt or oils. Avoid using any soap or lotion on the affected area, as they may interfere with the effectiveness of the scabies treatment.
4. Apply the scabies treatment: once the area is clean and dry, put on a pair of disposable gloves to avoid spreading the mites to other parts of your body. Take the prescribed amount of the scabies treatment cream or lotion and apply it to the affected area. Gently massage the product onto your skin, ensuring to cover all the affected areas and even the nearby skin. Follow the specific instructions for the application technique and the duration for which the treatment should be left on.
5. Cleanse and sanitize: after applying the scabies treatment, thoroughly clean any surfaces or objects that might have come into contact with the affected area. This includes washing your towels, bedsheets, clothing, and any other fabrics that could potentially harbor the mites. Use hot water and a high-temperature dryer cycle to effectively eliminate the mites. Additionally, vacuum upholstery, carpets, and rugs to remove any potential microscopic mites.

Who Needs Scabies Prep?

3. Healthcare workers or caregivers: healthcare workers or individuals working in close proximity with patients who have scabies may also need to take precautions and undergo scabies prep. This helps reduce the risk of spreading scabies to other patients or individuals.
