Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right absorbency level?
Continence products are sized by absorbency capacity. Light-absorbency products are designed for occasional drips during physical activity; moderate-absorbency products suit daily mild-to-moderate incontinence; and high-absorbency or overnight products are designed for heavy leakage or extended wear. Your continence nurse or pharmacist can help match product to need.
Are continence products subsidised in Australia?
The Continence Aids Payment Scheme (CAPS) is an Australian Government scheme that helps eligible people with severe permanent incontinence cover the cost of continence products. Eligibility is assessed via the Department of Health. Speak with your GP, continence nurse, or call the National Continence Helpline on 1800 33 00 66 for eligibility advice.
How should I dispose of used continence products?
Place used continence products in their disposal bag (where provided) and dispose of them in regular household waste, sealed. Do not flush continence products down the toilet — even those marketed as flushable can block plumbing and wastewater infrastructure.
Can incontinence be treated?
Yes. Many causes of urinary and faecal incontinence are treatable. The National Continence Helpline (1800 33 00 66) provides free, confidential advice from continence nurses and can refer you to a local continence specialist. HealthDirect Australia (1800 022 222) also provides nurse-led triage.
Where do I get a continence assessment?
Your GP can refer you to a continence physiotherapist, continence nurse, or specialist (urologist, urogynaecologist, colorectal surgeon depending on the cause). The Continence Foundation of Australia (continence.org.au) is the peak body and publishes a directory of credentialled continence professionals.
