Course: Continence Care Training

Continence is the ability to control the movements of both the bladder and bowel. Incontinence is when someone has little or no control over their bladder or bowel movements. Incontinence can also occur where there are no problems with the bowel or bladder, but mobility or other issues make using the toilet difficult. Managing Pressure Sores:
