What do Continence Care Registered Nurses do?
Continence Care Registered Nurses specialize in preventing, assessing, and managing bladder and bowel control problems (incontinence) by providing comprehensive patient care plans, education, and support to improve quality of life.
They assess patient needs through detailed history-taking and physical examinations, then develop individualized care plans that may include lifestyle changes, pelvic floor exercises, specialized devices, and referrals for other treatments or surgical interventions.
What they do
Assessment: Conduct in-depth assessments of a patient’s urinary and bowel function to identify the cause and severity of continence issues.
Diagnosis & Planning: Synthesize patient data to determine the most appropriate interventions and create a personalized care plan.
Education & Support: Educate patients and their families on continence management techniques, lifestyle modifications, pelvic floor exercises, and the proper use of assistive devices, such as catheters and absorbent products.
Treatment & Intervention: Implement treatment options, including recommending behavioral therapies, medications, or coordinating surgical consultations, to manage continence issues.
Specialized Care: Assist with the care and management of urinary catheters, stoma care for those with bowel incontinence, and related skin and wound care.
Advocacy: Serve as an expert clinician, consultant, and educator to advocate for patients and guide optimal care in various healthcare settings.
Who They Help
Continence nurses provide guidance and care to people of all ages, from children to the elderly, who are experiencing urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, or other pelvic floor issues.
Specialized Certification
Many continence nurses achieve board certification through the Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nursing Certification Board (WOCNCB), earning credentials such as the Certified Continence Care Nurse (CCCN). This voluntary certification validates their advanced knowledge and expertise in continence care.
