Urinary incontinence is a significant problem for elderly people. Home care nurses are in a unique position to identify urinary incontinence and manage it in the home setting. Nurses can help to decrease incontinence by assessing for problems, making nursing diagnoses, and implementing appropriate treatment plans. Well-planned and documented continence care is a reimbursable nursing service for home care agencies.
