"Continence nurses have given great care"

About: Adult Health Services / Continence Services Lanarkshire Community Services / Continence Services

(as a service user),

I have suffered from continence problems for years but contacting the continence service this time has made a big difference to my life.  The nurse I contacted this time around took time to listen to what I had to say, gave me great information and also arranged for me to get continence pants.

The nurse contacted social works and got me a bannister outside railings both from and back a bed pulley and 'sock putteroner' since that time they have kept in contact with myself to see how i'm getting on. Lately nurse Michelle has been keeping me right  I would like to say a big thanks to all the nurses in this section.

Dear dougbpe22

Thank you so much for letting us know the difference that the continence nurses and the locality Occupational Therapy team have made to your quality of life. Quite simple changes can make a really positive difference, and I'm so pleased to hear that their support has made life so much easier for you. If you're able to let me know which town you live in, I'll make sure that those involved know how much this has helped you.

Very best regards

Patricia
