Understanding Incontinence in Seniors

Incontinence, the loss of bladder or bowel control, affects up to 50% of senior adults, often with gradual symptoms that can become more severe over time. It's essential to understand this condition to provide effective care and support.

Why Incontinence Matters

Health Risks:
Incontinence can lead to physical dependencies and increase the risk of falls, skin issues, and urinary tract infections (UTIs). UTIs are particularly prevalent among older adults, accounting for 23% of hospitalizations.

Product Quality:
Low-quality incontinence products with poor absorbency can prolong wetness exposure, causing skin breakdown, infections, and ulcerations.

Impact on Well-Being:
Beyond physical health, incontinence care affect a person's dignity and emotional well-being. Issues like leakage and odor can contribute to feelings of anger, depression, and low self-esteem.
