Dementia and incontinence are points of moral challenge - with the potential to elicit care and concern, but also strong aversion and stigma - our review including katie featherstone @jilllmanthorpe Vari M Drennan 💙 research unpacks the issues and the opportunities for improvement

katie featherstone Datshiane Geller Institute of Ageing and Memory National Institute for Health and Care Research A much-needed breath of fresh air on the topic of continence! It's so much more than a physical issue so it needs more than the very limited task/routine or biomedical/clinical attention it usually gets.
