Our nurse-led Continence Service provides an integrated bladder and bowel dysfunction service to all adult patients registered with Hounslow and Richmond GP practices.
The service provides three main activities for patients:
Provision of community-based specialist continence and bladder and bowel dysfunction (BBD) clinics - aimed at continence promotion, improvement or resolution of the health complaint.
Provision of NHS incontinence products for patients unsuitable for active treatment, or who have failed to respond to active treatment (including care homes).
Telephone advice, education and support for the local community and healthcare/social care services.
Continence-trained nurses provide several outpatient clinics across Hounslow and Richmond Boroughs, where patients are assessed, investigated and treated. The service covers a wide range of urological, gynaecological, colorectal and continence problem.
