What does a carer actually do during a catheter care visit?

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.

Each visit is shaped around your needs, but there are some common tasks we can support with. These may include helping you wash and dry the skin around the catheter site, ensuring the tube and bag are positioned comfortably, emptying or changing drainage bags and recording urine if requested by your nurse. We can remind you to drink regularly, support toilet or commode transfers, and help with changing clothes or bedding if leaks occur. At the same time, we’ll chat with you about how you’re feeling, check for any signs of infection or discomfort, and offer reassurance and practical tips for between visits, all while protecting your dignity and privacy.
