TENA incontinence products for men and women come in many variants and sizes. Choosing the right size and fit is important for comfort, skin health, and leakage security. As pointed out in our article on how to choose the right incontinence product, you should perform an initial assessment and evaluation of your resident’s situation and needs. After that you’ll be able to find the most suitable incontinence product for him or her. No matter what kind of incontinence your resident is dealing with, correct measurement and sizing are essential for optimal fit and care.
Measure your resident’s waist and hip
Use a measuring tape to take your resident’s waist and hip measurements. Ask your resident to take off any outer garments before you begin, and make sure the measuring tape is snug around the waist or hip while measuring. The green circles in the image show you where you should take the measurements.
