Adult briefs, also known as disposable briefs, are underwear used by people who are not able to control their bladder or bowel movements. This task can be a low-stress experience if you stay calm, patient, and respectful.
These tips will help you change the brief while a person is lying down, which is sometimes easier for those that cannot stand without support.

They should use volunteers. This is just like a child washing a doll.😮

If you take a clean washcloth and dip in clean water then wipe the patients skin dip that wash cloth back in the water isn't the water now contaminated and should not be used again to wipe the patients body? How can you wipe a place with urine and feces and dip into water and believe that water is still clean water? Should you be wiping and tearing patients skin or be doing more patting?

Yes you’re correct, but they did not give a bed bath, they only cleaned the vagina and behind. They didn’t contaminate it because they didn’t use the wash cloth on the rest of the body. They’re just using it as a wipe per se but normally to avoid contamination when giving a bed bath you always start top to bottom , with vagina and anus being last to be washed, then you are done and can use a new washcloth to dip in the non soapy water to rinse them and then you’d use a clean dry off towel and you would pat dry . Hope this clears it up on why she didn’t switch.
