Continence Care Awareness

Continence support can have a profound effect on dignity, comfort and confidence. Explore how to provide respectful assistance that reflects the person's preferences, recognises changing needs and supports as much independence as possible in everyday routines.

Consider privacy, communication and the importance of avoiding unnecessary assumptions about what someone can do for themselves. Practical care scenarios help teams connect agreed support plans with consistent recording, appropriate equipment awareness and timely communication when a person's needs or usual presentation change.
