Ostomy/Urinary /Catheter Care

Catheter and Ostomy Care

Congenital disabilities, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, diverticulitis, and incontinence are just a few of the conditions that an Ostomy and Catheter aid can help with.

 

The ostomy and catheter assist the patient in effectively managing bowel or bladder problems.

 

We provide Ostomy and Catheter Care at Essential Home Health Care to help our patients maintain their health, hygiene, and prevent infection while emptying their bladder. We can assist with catheter, bowel, or stoma care.

Different types of Ostomy:

  • A colostomy is a surgical procedure that allows stool to pass through an infected colon. It is usually a hole in the large intestine.
  • An ileostomy is a surgical procedure that bypasses a portion of your small and large intestines. It makes a direct entry into the small intestine.
  • A Urostomy is a procedure that allows urine to be drained.

 

Essential Home Health Care provides expert nursing care in the privacy and comfort of your own home, whether you require a catheter or an ostomy bag on a temporary or long-term basis. Your clinical team will help you change and maintain your catheter or ostomy bag, as well as coordinate supplies to reduce your need to visit a hospital or doctor’s office. Furthermore, the nursing team at Home Health Solutions Group will provide education, training, and guidance on how to maximize your independence while minimizing complications such as infection and odor.

Catheter Maintenance

Catheter care is also available from our staff. A catheter is a tube inserted into the bladder that allows urine to drain into a drainage bag. They can be used either short-term or long-term to help empty the bladder in a variety of situations.
