I'm so sorry you had to deal with this man, Jen. I can't even imagine how difficult it must have been for you. I know I've told you this before but I feel like it's worth repeating. I have so much admiration and respect for the job you do. You have such a caring spirit and if you feel it's best to get a male nurse to take care of him, then that's what I'd do.
On a lighter note, I like Mullet's idea of the garden hose.
