Incontinence and toileting challenges are common yet sensitive aspects of caregiving, especially for individuals living with dementia. This webinar provides caregivers, healthcare professionals, and family members with a comprehensive understanding of incontinence and practical strategies for managing toileting issues with compassion and dignity.

Participants will explore the causes and types of urinary incontinence in both men and women and learn why cognitive decline in dementia contributes to loss of bladder and bowel control. The session will highlight the importance of creating structured toileting routines, using non-pharmacological interventions, and implementing supportive caregiving techniques to maintain comfort, hygiene, and quality of life for clients.

Objectives:
  • What is incontinence and why it occurs in dementia
  • Types and symptoms of urinary incontinence
  • Strategies caregivers can use to support clients with dignity
  • The role and benefits of a toileting schedule
  • Non-drug approaches to managing urinary incontinence

Whether you're a professional caregiver or supporting a loved one at home, this webinar will equip you with practical tools and compassionate approaches to address incontinence challenges effectively.
