Our Mission is to Contribute to Better Primary Healthcare

Indwelling catheters are used by five percent of men over the age of 65

The changing of urinary catheters in primary care often creates problems:

• Patient discomfort• Bleeding• Urinary tract infections (UTIs)

Health personnel are often reluctant to undertake procedure

Senior patients deserve good domestic care, freedom

from expensive and disabling infections, and less discomfort
