Government Assistance
When talking with your loved one about incontinence, let them know that, with help from their doctor, this problem can often be cured and can always be managed.
National Continence Helpline
The National Continence Helpline was established to provide prompt, confidential and professional advice for people with incontinence, their carers, and organisations with an interest in continence management. It also provides printed information and educational material to Helpline clients about continence management and to support appropriate referral.
The National Continence Helpline operates from 8am to 8pm EST, five days a week on 1800 33 00 66.
Financial Assistance
The Continence Aids Assistance Scheme is an Australian Government program that assists eligible people who have permanent and severe incontinence to meet some of the costs of continence products. Visit the Government’s Bowel Bladder website for more information about applying for CAAS.
