More Cash for Diapers and Incontinence Products

Diapers are on of the more expensive supplies that aging adults encounter as well as the facilities that provide care for them.

Since that expense usually rolls down to the individual the question is how can people continue to manage a growing expense on what is typically a fixed and decreasing budget.

There are adds that say $500-$1000 a day. If those are real that may provide an opportunity to generate income to offset the rising costs of incontinence supplies such as adult diapers and pads. Not only offset, but allow consumers to actually buy the highest quality products such as Tranquility Adult Diapers.

Tranquility - The Lexus of Adult Diapers

I happened across the blog about Lexus when I was looking through the posts on 10factors.com. Among the thoughts it inspired were whether there is a comparison between Lexus and Tranquility. Probably less than a comparison than an analogy.

Factors for choosing Adult Diapers

I saw this post on the 10Factors website and knew we should chime in as an expert in this case. Actually, there are more questions that we think people should know about. These questions lead to what we call the:

Tranquility Difference

Question: What is the Peach Mat Guarantee?

Tranquility’s Peach Mat Construction guarantees unsurpassed performance in the areas of Skin Dryness, Odor Reduction, pH neutralization of Urine and Inhibition of Bacterial Growth.

Question: How can disposable brief guarantee skin dryness?

Tranquility has developed a super absorbent polymer core that is incorporated in the center target zone of the brief. It is designed to absorb more than 50 times its weight while turning urine into gel. There is no puddling or leakage, ensuring greater patient comfort, and less skin irritation.

Question: Why is there a reduction in odor with Tranquility?

Tranquility places specially formulated super-absorbent polymers just under the Peach colored quilted area of each product, which locks in fluids quickly while neutralizing pH and inhibiting the effect of food as a source of odor forming bacteria.

Question: Why is odor elimination so important?

Odor can be a sign of poorly performing incontinence products and improper patient care.

Question: Why does urine need to be neutralized?

Urine is very heavy in ammonia-type compounds, which cause odor, skin irritation, and is a medium for rapid bacterial growth. By neutralizing the ammonia pH in the urine, it helps to prevent skin breakdown and Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs).

Question: Why is the Komfort Monitor so special?

The Komfort Monitor is a volume sensitive wetness indicator that shows “approximate volume capacity, under wearing conditions”. The two yellow lines on either side of the peach paper turn to blue when moisture is present. The capacity of the brief is used up when a full 10 inches of the Komfort Monitor has turned to blue. This enables one to use the brief to its full capacity and allows for fewer changes, less cost and less in landfills.

Question: What do the Kufguards do for the product?

Tranquility’s Kufguards provide extra leakage protection and provide for loose bowel containment.

Question: What type of Tranquility product is best for the individual customer?

There are three factors one should consider:

  • Volume and Frequency of incontinence episodes
  • Mobility and Socialization patterns
  • Personal Preference of individual style

Question: Why pay more money for high performing incontinence products?

Higher performing products save money for many reasons:

  • Fewer changes use less products
  • Fewer changes provide more time for the caregiver
  • Fewer changes eliminate waste of extra wipes, gloves, etc.
  • Saves time and energy by not having extra laundry loads

Question: Do you have products that help with bowel incontinence?

The TopLiner Booster Contour has been made specifically for this purpose. It has a wider surface for more absorbent capacity and a soft texture for easy clean up. There is no adhesive strip on the back so it can be replaced quickly with a fresh replacement. The TopLiner improves user comfort by ending leakage, rashes and nighttime changes.

Top 5 Searches for Tranquility Adult Diapers

There are so many choices when it comes to adult diapers. Clearly Tranquility is not the only choice, but for some reason people swear by them. If you examine many of the site offering adult diapers for sale you invariably come across this brand. So how e you never heard of them or why aren’t they better known? We hear about Depends first and foremost, but apparently there are other makers to consider. Since at least one of the sites identified in the Google list (www.AdultDiapers2U.com) doesn’t even carry Depends, but they carry Tranquility it makes me wonder who else is in the know.

Here is a top 5 list of searches for Tranquility Adult Diapers:

1 tranquility adult diapers
2 tranquility adult diapers underpads
3 tranquility adult diapers free shipping
4 wholesale adult diapers tranquility
5 find tranquility adult diapers
5 tranquility adult diapers free shiping

There doesn’t appear to be any particular pattern to these except one thing – people knew precisely what they were looking for with regard to an adult diaper selection. Someone out there knows about Tranquility Adult Diapers and my assumption is that they know about them for a reason.

We may be able to get something cheaper, you can see people want free shipping, but will it really serve the purpose and be cheaper in the long run? It does not take much to choose another brand, find something on sale at Wal-mart or whatever. But in the end any consumer is apt to remember why they were looking for a particular product and with adult diapers mistakes can get messy. ☺

Selecting the right adult diapers

Before deciding Tranquility Adult Diapers are the ones to buy, we should look at what goes in to the selection decision process. To do this we can consider who’s making the decision and what is it they’re considering. Determining the key factors in selecting adult diapers is highly dependent on the selectors perspective. Among the perspectives to be considered are buyer, user, a supplier, a caregiver, an administrator, a medical practitioner – doctor or nurse.

Starting with the buyer.

For this case we need to acknowledge that there are different types of buyers. A buyer for adult diapers could be a family member such as son or daughter or even a sibling. In that case the buyer is intimately involved with the user. But a buyer could also be someone totally removed form the user as is the case with hospital of facility buyers. This difference can sway what the buyer factors in to the decision on what to select.

Primarily a buyer is going to shop on price first and foremost. If you are a buyer for an Assisted Living facility, you probably start your list with price. It probably was not even a second thought because you are paid to get the best deal. One simple question: How much do they cost? You can break that down to the price for a case, the price for a piece, the price of shipping, etc. Buyers tend to focus on Price as the dominant indicator of what should be selected.

Obviously the price of an adult diaper is not the only factor to consider in the selection process, but it is clearly going to be considered. If Tranquility Adult Diapers are not competitive on price they probably won’t be selected, they definitely will have some ground to make up. No matter how many times we hear the phrase “you get what you pay for” we still look at price first and foremost.

What does Google say about Tranquility Adult Diapers

Since this is an internet blog about Tranquility Adult Diapers I decide to investigate the connection between the two using a series of searches in the largest search engine – Google.

The first case is just a simple look into what Google brings up if you type in the term Tranquility Adult Diapers. I did not use any special quotes or characters such as + for the terms, just the terms themselves.

But, wait. Before I show the results I want you to think of what you expect. What site will occupy that holy number position? Will all the sites really be relevant? How many sites come up?

Here are my results:

On my first search I made no modifications to Google so I got the normal 1-10 and at the top of the page?

www.tranquilityproducts.com

Yeah right, “boy that’s a surprise!” NOT! Now with regard to relevancy all the sites in this search seem to be targeting the same applications and consumers. However, there are 105,000 hits as far as possible sites. I doubt all of them are going to be so similar.

To test that I did a modified search where instead of the first 1-10, I got 1-100. I then went through to determine individual website urls amongst all the titles. The list below is no longer in order and is instead sorted alphabetically. Numbers are provided to show that I did not get 100 individual urls. I am going to check into this to see if some are missing because I only count 69 and a lot of those such as www.adultdiapers2u.com are repeats. I wonder if number 69 is relevant, humm?
