Effective continence care for patients living at home
Providing effective continence care for patients living at home is challenging. Behind every door there are different needs – needs caregivers often have to meet alone. Today, over 40% of over 65s with daily urinary incontinence are cared for at home,* so these needs are only going to grow.
Using or prescribing TENA products will give patients living at home long-lasting protection with more comfort and leakage security. TENA products will also provide caregivers with the support they need to deliver effective continence care with less changing, less skin irritation and less intrusion.

Incontinence makes caring at home harder for everyone
Challenges for caregivers
As a caregiver, working with low quality products can lead to a lower standard of care. This means heavier workloads with more leakages, changes and skin health issues.
As a result, patients will suffer from a lower quality of life, while caregivers will suffer from more stress, more back bends and less job satisfaction.

Challenges for prescribers
As a prescriber, it can be difficult to know which incontinence products are available and which are most effective. It can also be difficult to match the right products to individual needs, while finding time to monitor and review care is a challenge. As a result, patients can suffer serious incontinence-related issues such as incontinence associated dermatitis (IAD).
