Personalised Continence Support from Qualified Nursing Professionals
At A1 Care Group, we provide professional and compassionate Continence Assessment services in Sunshine, Melbourne, helping participants manage bladder and bowel conditions with dignity, confidence, and independence.
Our experienced Continence Nurse Consultants, Continence Care Advisors, and Registered Nurses specialise in continence management under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). We develop personalised continence care plans, offer expert product advice, and deliver ongoing support to help you achieve your goals and live comfortably at home and in your community.
A Continence Assessment is a professional nursing evaluation that identifies and manages bladder or bowel control issues, including urinary incontinence, bowel incontinence, and nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting).
Our qualified Continence Nurse Consultant or Registered Nurse will assess your needs, create a tailored Continence Assessment Form and Care Plan, and provide a detailed Continence Report to support your NDIS funding.
This plan outlines recommended strategies, continence aids, and consumables such as:
Incontinence pads (for men and women)
Pads for urinary incontinence
Always incontinence pads
Catheter or stoma care supplies
Bladder and bowel management aids
Your continence assessment ensures that your supports are “reasonable and necessary” within your NDIS plan and tailored to your personal lifestyle and health needs.

Understanding Incontinence
Incontinence refers to the loss of bladder or bowel control. Common types include:
Urinary Incontinence
Stress incontinence: leakage when coughing, sneezing or lifting
Urge incontinence: strong, sudden urge to urinate
Mixed incontinence: combination of both stress and urge
Overflow incontinence: dribbling due to incomplete bladder emptying
Bowel Incontinence
Leakage or loss of bowel control caused by constipation, diarrhoea, or weakened pelvic muscles
Causes of bowel incontinence in females may include childbirth injury, pelvic floor dysfunction, or nerve damage
A professional assessment helps identify the underlying causes and provides a structured, evidence-based management plan.
