Our Mission is to Contribute to Better Primary Healthcare
Indwelling catheters are used by five percent of men over the age of 65
The changing of urinary catheters in primary care often creates problems:
• Patient discomfort• Bleeding• Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Health personnel are often reluctant to undertake procedure
Senior patients deserve good domestic care, freedom
from expensive and disabling infections, and less discomfort
