Selecting the correct absorbency level depends on the amount of leakage protection required. Using a product with the wrong absorbency can affect comfort and effectiveness.

When choosing a product, consider:

• The level and frequency of leakage
• Whether the product is needed during the day, overnight or both
• The user’s mobility and ability to change products independently
• Personal comfort and fit preferences

The right continence product depends on several factors, including absorbency requirements, mobility, comfort and daily routine.

Consider:

• How much protection is needed
• Whether the product will be used during the day or overnight
• Whether the user can change the product independently
• The preferred style and fit

Quality continence products play an important role in maintaining comfort, hygiene, and dignity. Reliable products are designed with better-absorbent materials, improved fit, and greater protection against leaks.

Choosing quality products can help:

• Reduce skin irritation caused by moisture
• Provide longer-lasting protection
• Improve confidence when leaving home
• Make personal care routines easier
• Support better experiences for both users and carers

The frequency of changing continence products depends on the product type, absorbency level and individual needs. Products should generally be changed when required to maintain comfort, hygiene and healthy skin.
