Catheterisation Training for Nurses and Carers

Catheterisation is a medical procedure that involves inserting a thin tube called a catheter into the bladder to drain urine. Catheterisation can be done for various reasons, such as urinary retention, urinary incontinence, surgery, or end-of-life care.

Catheterisation is not a difficult skill to learn, but it requires proper training and practice to ensure safety and comfort for the patient. Improper catheterisation can lead to complications such as infection, trauma, or blockage. Therefore, it is essential that you have the knowledge and confidence to carry out this procedure correctly and professionally.
