Caring for a loved one with incontinence requires a careful approach and attention to practical strategies like establishing healthy habits and choosing suitable products.

BUILDING EFFECTIVE DAILY HABITS AND BLADDER TRAINING

Caring for someone with incontinence involves establishing routines that reduce the frequency and urgency of leaks. Bladder training encourages gradual increases in the time between bathroom visits, helping a person to regain control over their bladder and reduce accidents. Regular hydration is essential too as dehydration can irritate the bladder and increase the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Limiting diuretic drinks like coffee and alcohol is also beneficial, as they can exacerbate symptoms.
