Catheter Care is a type of complex care service provided by Aeon Nursing where it involves the insertion, maintenance, and removal of catheters for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. Catheter Care helps to monitor blood pressure, prevent infection, administer medications, and aid in any other medical procedures that require the use of a catheter.
Patients who are receiving Catheter Care may experience various types of difficulties. These include pain during insertion or removal of the catheter, infection at the site where the catheter was inserted, blockage in the urinary tract due to crystals or clots, leakage around the catheter site and frequent bladder spasms. Psychological issues such as anxiety and fear can also be associated with this kind of care.
Aeon Nursing’s approach to Catheter Care focuses on providing personalised care for each patient’s individual needs. Our nurses are trained to assess each patient’s condition so that appropriate steps can be taken to ensure their safety throughout the procedure. We strive for excellence in both technical skills and compassionate care when providing this kind of service.
Our nursing staff understands how challenging it can be for patients who require Catheter Care and know how important it is to empower them with knowledge about their condition so that they feel secure in our care. To do this, we provide comprehensive patient education before performing any procedures related to catheters including information on proper hygiene habits while using a catheter along with tips on managing discomfort or pain if it should occur during its use.
