Urinary Catheterization

Urinary catheterization involves placing a thin, flexible tube (catheter) into the bladder through the urethra to help drain urine. This procedure is often necessary after surgery, during hospitalization, or for individuals who are temporarily or permanently unable to urinate on their own. Catheters may be required:

Short-term – post-surgery or during acute illness

Long-term or permanent – in elderly patients or those with chronic conditions or permanent injuries

To ensure patient comfort and safety, our home-based urinary catheterization service offers Skilled nursing care for:

Catheter insertion and removal

Ongoing monitoring and maintenance

Prevention of complications like infections, pressure sores, or dislodgment

Patient positioning to avoid discomfort and injury

Our trained nurses also:

Educate patients and caregivers on catheter care and hygiene

Provide guidance on fluid intake and diet, which directly impacts urinary output and catheter performance

Ensure proper sanitation, comfort, and dignity during the entire process

With our at-home catheter care, patients can recover or manage their condition in a familiar, stress-free environment while reducing hospital visits and infection risks.
