Faecal Incontinence Supplement1
Faecal incontinence is a stigmatising and under-reported condition often neglected by professionals who can feel inappropriately skilled to provide appropriate care for sufferers. The management of faecal incontinence is a priority in both acute and community care settings in order to reduce the risk of perineal dermatitis, skin breakdown and transmission of infection.2
This supplement includes:
- Diagnosis and treatment
- Reducing cross-infection through appropriate containment of faeces
- Maintaining skin integrity
- Promoting patient dignity
- Monitoring fluid balance
- Health economic data and cost effectiveness
- Management options.

The Personal Care Policy
Including all children in schools, childcare and play settings
Children and their families should not be excluded or treated less favourably because they have personal care needs, for example, wearing nappies, having occasional ‘accidents’ or needing ongoing support with personal care. We will work to ensure that every child and young person can easily access care and play and learning experiences in our schools, pre-school settings, out-of-school settings and children’s centres.
