“…Nurses and students must be prepared to teach clients about the behavioral and pharmacologic treatments available for UI. Successful UI treatments have been reported by others (Bo & Berghmans; 2000; Burgio et al, 1998; Kane, Ouslander, & Abrass, 1999; McFall, Yerkes, Belzer & Cowan, 1994; Mattiasson, 2000; Nygaard, Kreder, Lepic, Fountain, & Rhomberg, 1996; Payne, 2000; Tunis, Whyte & Bridger, 2000), and are not discussed here. Nurses and students must realize the importance of stressing to caregivers and recipients the psychosocial components and treatment options that can minimize the negative impact of UI.…”

“…Once UI is accepted as being a problem, individuals must deal with such barriers to care as lack of access to services and resources. Although it is not a cause of mortality, UI imposes significant morbidity, with negative physical, emotional, and psychosocial effects on affected individuals (DuBeau, Levy, Mangione, & Resnik, 1998; McFall, Yerkes, Belzer, & Cowan, 1994; Gallagher, 1998; Skelly & Boblin‐Cummings).…”

A phenomenological study was conducted to answer the question: What can you tell me about dealing with urinary incontinence (UI)? This study was a pilot research project by the Maumee Bay Chapter of the Association of Rehabilitation Nurses. Four dyads, caregivers and care recipients, living in home settings in northwestern Ohio composed the purposive sample. Transcription of each 1‐hour interview was reviewed with Colaizzi's (1978) method of data analysis. The analysis identified two themes: coping with care deficits, and supporting care abilities in the caregiver‐care recipient dyads. Caregiver suggestions were found that enhanced abilities to manage problems with UI. The study's findings contribute to rehabilitation nursing by providing important insights into dealing with UI from the perspectives of both caregivers and care recipients, by offering direction for nursing practice and education, and by being an impetus for further nursing research.
