Program Overview
The National Association for Continence (NAFC) estimates that 75-80% of urinary incontinence sufferers are women, 9-13 million of whom have bothersome, severe, symptoms. Many patients with that problem can do something to eliminate or at least reduce it. As front line providers, pharmacists can help patients and women in particular cope with this debilitating and embarrassing disorder. This program will educate pharmacists on barriers to diagnosis and treatment of urinary incontinence and offer effective and appropriate communication techniques to engage and counsel patients about urinary incontinence.
