FAQs: Continence Assessments Through a Home Care Package
What is a continence assessment through a Home Care Package?

A continence assessment through a Home Care Package is a comprehensive clinical review conducted by an experienced Continence Nurse Specialist. It focuses on understanding the individual’s bladder and bowel function, lifestyle, and daily care needs.

This assessment forms the foundation for creating a tailored continence care plan and accessing funded continence products and services under the HCP program.

Anyone receiving a Home Care Package who is experiencing incontinence or requires support with toileting, hygiene, or continence product use may be eligible.

If you’re unsure, speak with your Case Manager or contact our team to discuss the client’s situation. We can help determine the most appropriate next steps based on clinical needs and funding level.

The assessment typically takes between 60 to 90 minutes. During this time, our Continence Nurse Specialist will review the client’s history, assess current continence needs, and discuss product options. We take a holistic and respectful approach, making sure the client feels supported and heard throughout the session.

After the assessment, we provide ongoing product support, including delivery coordination, reminders, and education for clients and carers. We remain available for questions and offer optional follow-up appointments as needed to ensure that the continence care plan remains effective and aligned with the client’s needs.
