Frequently Asked Questions

What does incontinence care involve?
Incontinence care includes assistance with toileting, changing protective undergarments, maintaining skin hygiene, and ensuring comfort throughout the day. Proper care helps prevent irritation, infections, and discomfort. Additionally, hydration management, dietary adjustments, and scheduled bathroom breaks may be incorporated to reduce the frequency of accidents.
How often is assistance provided for incontinence care?
Assistance is provided as often as needed to maintain cleanliness and prevent skin issues. Routine checks are typically scheduled at regular intervals, and immediate assistance is given when required. The frequency of care depends on individual needs and any underlying medical conditions that affect bladder or bowel control.
Are there special incontinence products available for sensitive skin?
Yes, hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, and moisture-wicking products are commonly used for incontinence care. Skin protection creams and barrier ointments help prevent irritation and rashes. If specific brands or products are preferred, arrangements can often be made to accommodate these needs.
Can incontinence care be managed or improved over time?
In some cases, incontinence can be managed through scheduled bathroom routines, dietary adjustments, pelvic floor exercises, or medical interventions. Identifying underlying causes and working with healthcare professionals can sometimes improve bladder or bowel control. However, ongoing support is always available to ensure hygiene and comfort.
