Continence assessment is much more than deciding which pad to use! Important to explore underlying cause- maybe as simple as help walking to the toilet #endPJparalysis This article is useful reminder of things to consider #ntclinical @ACA_Continence @gfiforum https://t.co/1ljORCw8wE

One of the most liked tweets from GFI in Rome last week: Holly Harmon from American Health Association sharing her reflections from the first day of Global Forum on Incontinence. Thank you Holly! #gfiforum2018

@adrianwagg @jacsdennis1 @Booth_jo @CareInspect @gfiforum I think this work demonstrate how care outcomes can change and how patients quality of life is improved and staff satisfaction sent into outer space. Excellent piece of work. https://t.co/nAuVSlIC4G

Grazie ad uno studio che ha coinvolto #stakeholder, #pazienti, assistenti, operatori sanitari, #politici e payers, al #GFIforum2018 sono stati presentati 14 indicatori in grado di guidare la gestione dell’#incontinenza e il miglioramento degli standard assistenziali.

Thank you Derick Fage @DerickFage for sharing your story on what it is like to live with incontinence. #gfiforum2018

[Dr Rona Agnew @rona_lotus2003]

@NicolaSturgeon @FionaCMcQueen @gfiforum @jacsdennis1 @Booth_jo KPI work and implementation. Key to success is working on National 4 country approach so we can measure improvement across the health service. Thoughts??

[RCN Bladder and Bowel Forum @RCNContinence]

#gfiforum2018 A starting point for Global KPI, a few common themes from all. Patient is key

[Eileen Shepherd @eileenshepherd]

Interesting comment that we need to include pharmacists in discussions around continence care. May be first patient contact #gfiforum2018 @rpharms

[IFSBH @ifsbh]

Proper reimbursement of #continence management products also remains key. In Bulgaria, the National Health Insurance Fund does not reimburse the costs of catheters needed for clean intermittent catheterisation: https://t.co/gXwAWc15zT #GFIforum2018
