Can you help after hospital discharge with a new catheter?

Warm realistic scene of a black female caregiver in a navy 00072b tunic with e51974 piping sitting beside an older white male in his living room both smiling as they look over catheter care instructions together showing reassurance and trust in a homely setting.

Yes, many people find the first few days and weeks at home with a new catheter the hardest. We can arrange visits that start as soon as you return, working alongside hospital and community teams. Early on, we may focus on building your confidence with transfers, toileting, washing and dressing, while reinforcing the catheter care instructions you’ve been given. As you feel more at ease, visits can be adjusted. For some, this might mean reducing support; for others, especially those with complex needs, we may continue regular visits and integrate catheter care into a broader home care package tailored to your circumstances.
