title: Assessing urinary incontinence.
abstract: Nursing assistants are often responsible for the difficult task of accurately observing and recording the incontinence patterns of nursing home residents. Use of the Incontinence Monitoring Record may provide nursing assistants with an easier and more comprehensive method of recording incontinence patterns. Education is an essential component in expecting nursing assistants to consistently and accurately document time, amount, and frequency of incontinence. Satisfactory inter-rater reliability can be attained through use of the Incontinence Monitoring Record with nursing assistants.
