Finding affordable wipes that still do the job well is a common concern for caregivers. While specific wipe brand recommendations weren't widely discussed, myALZteam members have shared some helpful tips for managing cleanup on a budget.
A great approach is to put together a simple cleanup kit that includes:
- Disposable absorbent underwear (like Depends)
- Wet wipes (store-brand options can be just as effective)
- Floor pads
- Gloves
- A trash bag
Store-brand or generic wet wipes from places like Walmart, Target, or Costco tend to be much more affordable than name brands and work just as well for most caregivers.
It's also worth checking if any wipes are covered under insurance or available through Medicare, as incontinence supplies are sometimes included. Asking a doctor about this could save some money!
