Promotion and Management of Continence for Adult Services Policy (P10)
This policy aims to identify a framework for the standards of care and best practice for bladder, bowel and continence promotion. The range of multidisciplinary professionals involved in continence care is diverse, and it is therefore essential that a continence service delivers integrated working practices across organisational and professional boundaries in order to provide effective care and efficient use of resource. The information detailed within this document will assist healthcare professionals who are undertaking a continence assessment and sets the standards of care for patients who present with a bladder or bowel problem. The continence advisory service aims to provide a quality service to all adults registered with a Derbyshire or Derby City GP. People with continence needs should be seen at the most appropriate time by the most appropriate professional. Excellence in continence care (2018) suggests that the initial assessment is best undertaken by staff trained in continence care within in a community setting, the provision of a high-quality assessment is the foundation of high-quality continence care.
