Toiletting

Bladder and bowel control problems can be embarrassing for your loved one. Incontinence can become part of aging or most illnesses. At Volver A Casa we care for the patients that might need help using the toilet. Our caregivers will help the patient getting to the bathroom on a frequent, scheduled basis without rushing the patient after the urge, which causes the chances of accidents. With the help of our meal plans, which are in high fiber and encouraging the patient with daily exercise to stimulate the bowel activity, the caregiver assures that the patient won’t be suffering of constipation often.
