Understanding Continence Support
Continence Support focuses on helping seniors manage bladder and bowel control with thoughtful, personalised care. Through tailored strategies like pelvic exercises, diet adjustments, and practical aids, we provide the tools needed to reduce discomfort, prevent leaks, and support independence. Families benefit too, knowing their loved ones are receiving compassionate, professional care.
How Continence Support Works
Our step-by-step approach ensures every patient receives the care and attention they deserve:
Initial Assessment A healthcare professional evaluates continence issues by reviewing medical history, symptoms, and lifestyle factors to understand underlying causes.
Personalised Care Plan Development Based on the assessment, we design a custom plan with strategies like exercises, dietary adjustments, and practical aids such as pads or briefs.
Pelvic Floor Exercises and Bladder Training Seniors are guided through gentle exercises and techniques to strengthen pelvic muscles and improve bladder control over time.
Diet and Hydration Guidance Recommendations on nutrition help prevent bladder or bowel irritation, promoting better control and comfort.
Caregiver Education and Support Families receive tips on supporting hygiene and dignity, ensuring they feel confident in assisting their loved ones.
