Bowel Management Programs

Bowel management programs are structured plans designed to help individuals control their bowel movements, often used for those with incontinence or chronic constipation. These programs may include dietary changes, scheduled toileting routines, medications, suppositories, or enemas to regulate bowel function. The goal is to promote regular, predictable elimination, improve quality of life, and prevent complications like skin irritation or discomfort. They are personalized based on the individual's needs and medical condition, often involving healthcare professionals to develop and monitor the plan for optimal bladder and bowel health.
