Keep Dry Cape
KD Cape
The Keep Dry Cape creates ease for bed bound patients and caregiver during hair washing care. Benefits include improved patient comfort and dignity, reduces caregiver strain, supports infection control, and decreases use of facility resources such as towels, absorbent pads and bed linens.
The KD Cape is a water-resistant draping system that anchors under the patients shoulders and head while allowing water to drain into the collection pouch that hangs at the head of the bed. The collection pouch holds in excess of 5 liters of water to accommodate a thorough hair washing. The KD Cape is equipped with a drainage port that can be fashioned to suction or opened for easy drainage.
Ideal for use in hospitals, long term care facilities, and in home care.
Prototype in development. Patent pending.

Our Vision
Our vision is a healthcare system where essential care is delivered with dignity, ease, and compassion — and where bedside hygiene never compromises patient comfort or caregiver wellbeing.
Our Team
Founded by Caitlin Liddycoat, a registered nurse in the critical care setting who saw the need for a more efficient, comfortable and dignified way to care for patients during the hair washing process.
