Continence Advisor (North East Shropshire)

Description:

Continence Advisors are specialist nurses who provide assessment for adult continence problems, with the aim of finding the cause of the problem, and then initiate conservative continence treatments where they are appropriate.

Anyone aged over 18 with bladder or bowel problems is eligible for assessment by the continence advisor or another health care professional such as a district nurse.

They run clinics county-wide and see patients in their own home, as appropriate.  Referral is through GPs, health care professional, social worker, nursing and residential homes or self referral.

For more information, please follow the link to their website.
