Catheter care involves the safe and respectful support of individuals who use a urinary catheter to drain urine from the bladder. It includes understanding the urinary system, different catheter types, drainage equipment, routine care, and potential complications. Good catheter care helps protect comfort, dignity, and overall wellbeing.
For healthcare and care professionals, understanding correct catheter care is essential for reducing avoidable risks and supporting safe day-to-day care. This includes maintaining good hygiene, preventing infection, monitoring urine and catheter function, and recognising signs that may require further attention. It also helps professionals provide more confident, respectful support to people with urethral or suprapubic catheters.
This Continuous Professional Development Catheter Care Course develops your knowledge of catheter care and the principles behind safe practice. You’ll explore why catheterisation may be required, how different catheters and drainage systems work, and how to manage routine care, drainage bags, hygiene, and common concerns. You’ll also learn about infection prevention, potential complications, appropriate documentation, and the importance of maintaining privacy and dignity throughout care.
