Incontinence Management Programs

Programs that provide comprehensive preventive, diagnostic and treatment or management services for individuals of all ages who are troubled by total or partial loss of bowel or bladder control. Services may include a complete work-up to determine the cause of the individual's incontinence; selection of a treatment option which may involve pelvic floor exercises, drug therapy or surgical intervention; development of an incontinence management routine should the condition be only partially remediable; and information and support for family members and other caregivers who may need to deal with practical health issues such as skin care, dehydration and prevention of bed sores.
