Practical continence support for adults, children and NDIS participants
If you live in Cairns or the surrounding areas and need support with bladder or bowel health, A1 Care Group is here to help. We offer professional Continence Assessment services delivered by qualified Continence Nurse Consultants, Registered Nurses and Continence Care Advisors.
Our assessments are available in-person across Cairns and statewide via telehealth for people living anywhere in Queensland. We focus on simple, effective, and respectful care that improves your comfort and independence every day.
A continence assessment is a detailed nursing evaluation that looks at your bladder and bowel function, daily routines, continence products, and overall health. The goal is to understand your needs and recommend the right supports so you can live more comfortably.
Your assessment includes:
Review of bladder and bowel patterns
Identification of issues such as urinary or bowel incontinence
Discussion of current continence products (pads, protective bedding, etc.)
Personalised Continence Care Plan
Full Continence Assessment Report for NDIS plans or healthcare professionals
Advice on toileting routines, hydration, mobility and skin care
Support for conditions like constipation, urgency, accidents, bedwetting and stoma care
You’ll receive clear recommendations and a plan you can follow at home or with your support workers.
How Your Assessment Works
Our continence assessments are done by friendly and experienced nurses who understand disability, chronic health conditions and family needs.
During your appointment, we:
Discuss your continence history and daily routine
Review any continence pads or aids you currently use
Assess any bladder or bowel concerns
Provide practical toileting advice
Suggest products or equipment that may help
Create a tailored care plan you can use right away
Provide a detailed report for your NDIS plan or doctor
You’ll receive an NDIS-ready report that can be used for consumables funding, assistive technology, and nursing support hours.
