A device for caring for a human subject, the device comprising:
- a frame including a base surfaces and side surfaces, and defining a hollow;
- a liquid receptacle in fluid communication with said frame to receive liquid from said frame, said liquid receptacle disposed beneath said frame and coextensive in longitudinal and lateral dimensions with said frame;
- a conduit fluidly connecting said hollow to said liquid receptacle;
- and a cover hingedly connected to said frame above said hollow, said cover including an inner surface, an outer surface, a hemispherical cross-section, and a planar segment spanning said cover, said planar segment forming a liquid receiving chamber on an interior of said cover between said inner surface and said outer surface and including a plurality of nozzles, a patient base, removably disposed within said hollow of said frame, said patient base including a plurality of cylindrical rollers connected to each other and independently rotatable relative to each other, each of said plurality of cylindrical rollers extending laterally across said frame configured to enable rolling and moving of the human subject longitudinally along the frame when the human subject is lying on the patient base and a plurality of channels, extending between said rollers, and in fluid communication with said conduit;
- wherein when liquid is disposed in said liquid receiving chamber and said cover is in a closed operative orientation thereof, said liquid is emitted from said liquid receiving chamber via said plurality of nozzles into said hollow, and flows from said hollow via said conduit to said liquid receptacle.
