ABSTRACT:
An excrement collection and disposal apparatus for use with supine patients includes a flexibly resilient scoop which is configured to fit under the buttocks of the patient over an extended period of time with a minimum of discomfort. A liner is fitted over a portion of the scoop for minimizing contact between excrement and the scoop. In use, the excrement collection and disposal apparatus is placed beneath the patient such that excrement will be deposited onto the liner, and a handle portion of the scoop extends away from the buttocks between the patient's legs. Following a bowel movement, the apparatus is removed from beneath the patient and the liner is then removed from the scoop and discarded. Immediately thereafter a new liner is placed onto the scoop and the apparatus is replaced beneath the buttocks of the patient.
