Editorial Review:

Product Description:
After reading "Managing and Treating Urinary Incontinence," you will be armed with all the available methods for successfully managing or even eliminating incontinence methods far more diverse and effective than many professionals today are aware.

In pragmatic, easy-to-understand language, this book presents the full range of treatment options, explaining how each method works and who benefits most from its use. Nursing staff will measurably improve the health and independence of residents or patients, and managers will reduce facility costs and staff burden.

This single, concise source provides the most essential information you need for understanding the types and causes of incontinence/overactive bladder; the use and care of products available for collecting or absorbing urine or feces; the efficacy of behavioral treatments, such as bladder retraining and toileting programs; the role of surgery and drug therapy in managing incontinence; the positive impact of incontinence education (valuable teaching guides and record-keeping forms provided); and
the psychological, social, health, and economic implications of poorly managed incontinence

This book is a must-have for nurses, physical therapists, social workers, and other health care professionals who work with older adults.
