Modules - Mobility Decline Prevention
IDENTIFY INCONTINENT RESIDENTS
FIT is designed for residents who are incontinent of urine. More specifically, it's for incontinent residents who receive some type of staff toileting assistance to help them stay dry. This means, of course, that these residents already have been, or should have been, assessed and treated for any transient causes of urinary incontinence.
If any incontinent residents haven't yet been assessed by a physician, they should be, for it is possible that their incontinence can be treated. Step 1 of our incontinence management training module outlines the assessment process. You may want to review this section to make sure your facility is covering all the bases.

From this point on, we'll assume that you've identified all incontinent residents who need some type of staff assistance to stay dry (or drier).
