Common questions about incontinence care

What is included in incontinence care?

Salusmax states that incontinence care encompasses all measures and medical aids for the management of urinary and fecal incontinence. Salusmax also includes care measures such as bladder training, pelvic floor exercises, toileting plans, and skin protection care, alongside the provision of aids such as pads, pants, anatomical liners, and fixation pants.

Which aids are part of incontinence care?

Salusmax covers aids such as pads, pants, anatomical liners, and fixation pants. Salusmax presents these as part of incontinence care, while the exact combination depends on the care situation and the required management approach.

How is incontinence care carried out?

Salusmax carries out incontinence care through care measures that include bladder training, pelvic floor exercises, toileting plans, and skin protection care. This applies when day to day management of urinary or fecal incontinence is needed, and is less relevant when the question is limited to definition alone rather than practical care measures.
