We know that continence issues can sometimes have a disproportionate impact on your life. Eimear and Ita, our expert team, are here to help. Here’s how:
Your needs are unique so Eimear or Ita will work with you, in confidence, to identify what you need. Together you will set continence goals and make a plan to achieve them through guidance and reviews. Goals can be specific like improving predictability or long-term goals like increasing self-management.
Tailored management plans can include trans-anal irrigation training (bowel washout) and intermittent catheterisation training (ISC/CIC), catheter type review and pad review. We will link in with your existing healthcare teams to maintain consistency in your healthcare.
Our experienced team is here to help, providing tailored advice and support to meet your needs.
