Incontinence Program
Roll for Control Program
Roll for Control Program
Our skilled home health incontinence program is designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles that influence bladder and bowel function through a four-step process which is implemented by our therapy team. Certain medical conditions, medications or surgeries can affect bladder control, but incontinence is NOT an inevitable part of aging. These deficits can often be effectively managed or even reversed, with this evidence-based program.
Program objectives:
- Improved continence, with decrease or elimination of urine leakage
- Increased balance and ambulation skills, reducing the risk of falls
- Better rest and sleep with fewer interruptions to use the bathroom
- Enhanced quality of life, willingness to socialize and participate in activities without the emotional and physical encumbrances associated with incontinence briefs and supplies
Interactive Patient Guide
A printed patient-focused guide designed to offer tools, education and exercise techniques to support long-term success.
Our Four-Step Approach
Our clinician assessments address self-awareness/management, mobility, dietary factors, social activities, safety, medication factors, strength/flexibility, environmental clues and voiding patterns. Then our physical therapists implement a four-step approach utilizing:
- Physiological quieting
- Core strengthening
- Pelvic floor strengthening
- Dietary recommendations
An Elara Caring therapist works one-on-one with the patient to strengthen muscles and decrease factors that influence incontinence.
