Tailored Catheter Care in Altrincham, Sale & Wythenshawe
Meet Bernard’s Journey: From Hospital to Home
In early January, we received an enquiry from Julia, whose 87-year-old father, Bernard, was recovering in hospital after major surgery. Bernard, also living with early dementia, was distressed and eager to return home—but no discharge care had been arranged. The very next day, our Client Manager visited him to assess his needs. By midweek, Bernard was home, supported by our Care Professionals with catheter and personal care, alongside help for his wife Sally. As Bernard improved, we reduced visits to twice daily. With a consistent team in place, Bernard and Sally feel secure, and Julia has peace of mind.

There are multiple reasons why you may have been given a catheter, whether it was an inability to pass urine or another health related issue. Working alongside your clinical team, our Care Professionals can work out a care plan to suit your needs.
Having a urinary or suprapubic catheter in place shouldn’t affect your normal day to day activities too much, allowing you to take part in gentle exercise and household tasks if you are feeling well. It is however recommended not to drive with a urinary catheter in place. If you feel you need assistance with your daily life, our experienced Care Professionals are available.
There are a few risks in using catheters, primarily they can increase the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs), bladder spasms and urinary blockages. To minimise these risks catheters are inserted using aseptic technique and the patient will have the catheter removed as soon as possible. Our Care Professionals are trained in dealing with catheters and informing your clinical team of any issues that arise. .
