  • Title: Improving continence care around the world.
    Author: Wagg A.
    Journal: Nurs Times; ; 111(22):22, 24. PubMed ID: 26201156.
    Abstract:
    Global demographic trends suggest the incidence of both urinary and faecal incontinence will rise in the coming years, with significant health and economic costs for patients and healthcare services. Healthcare providers across the globe lack guidance on how to deliver the most efficient, patient-focused care. The key finding of a report drawn up to address this was that specialist nurses have an important role in initial assessment and treatment, supplanting doctor-led provision models. This can be achieved through accredited training.
