As a caregiver, you may need to choose the right incontinence product for your loved one to help keep them comfortable, dry, and protected. But how do you choose the right one?
This guide will give you the information you need to pick the right product for your loved one to make sure you meet their needs.
Why it’s important to choose the right size
Some people may assume that a bigger product will have more absorbency. So instead of choosing a product with higher absorbency, they make the mistake of choosing a larger product. But that's a bad idea for two reasons: firstly, the absorbency does not significantly increase just because a product is larger in size; and secondly, or rather more importantly, opting for a larger product than needed will actually increase the chance of leakage because it will be loose fitting. So, make sure you choose a product that fits your loved one securely.
