As the global leader in incontinence care, we’re dedicated to empowering professionals to provide the best possible care. Because providing dignity and quality of life to the people you care for, is always at the heart of what we do. To celebrate World Continence Week 2023 we are going to run a series of educational webinars. The sessions are free to attend and now live for registrations. We look forward to seeing you soon.
1 in 8 men will get prostate cancer and some men experience bladder and bowel problems as a side effect of their treatment. We think it’s time for a national conversation to tackle the taboo surrounding male incontinence and support the large number of men who suffer in silence.
Our presenters for this event are:
• Chair: Jane Mayes, Clinical Education Manager, Essity
• Heather Groarke, Senior Specialist Nurse, Prostate Cancer UK
• Jonathon Hall, patient advocate
• Mark Geddes, TENA Men Brand Manager
Delegates will know and understand the key points and steps to consider when carrying out a continence assessment and what an assessment actually is. Delegates will have access to a range of tools to support them when carrying out the assessment.
Our presenters for this event are:
• Chair: Jane Mayes, Clinical Education Manager, Essity
• Jacqueline Robinson, Bladder and Bowel Service Clinical Lead, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust
• Ali Wileman, Strategic Healthcare Partner, Essity
Over 850,000 people in the UK have dementia, with the condition affecting 1 in 6 people over the age of 80. Despite this, the relationship between dementia and incontinence is often misunderstood. In this session, we will be going back to basics and challenging the common misconceptions about incontinence and dementia, so we can begin to understand and implement the appropriate steps to manage this condition.
Our presenters for this event are:
• Chair: Jane Mayes, Clinical Education Manager, Essity
• Dr Zena Aldridge RMHN DipHE MA FRSA, Independent Dementia Nurse Consultant
