title: Solving incontinence through assessment.
abstract: Urinary incontinence is a major problem in many nursing homes, and is often poorly managed. The author describes the attempts of one nursing home to address the problem by piloting a simple assessment and management programme. Many of the causes of incontinence were easily corrected and nurses' level of satisfaction increased as a result.
