Reducing the Stigma of Living With Incontinence

Webinar: Reducing the Stigma of Living With Incontinence

Most people who live with incontinence do so silently, often choosing not to tell their friends, family, or even their doctor(s). In this session we explore the stigma that few other common medical disorders are faced with today, along with practical interventions and ways to change the conversation.

Learning Objectives:

Identify the different types of incontinence
Explore the methods of decreasing the stigma related to incontinence
Recognize and understand incontinence treatments
