A new website has been launched to provide information to help people living with dementia to manage continence at home.

There is also information for friends and family and health professionals.

The DemCon website was developed by researchers at the University of Southampton and King’s College London, with funding from the Alzheimer’s Society and National Institute for Health and Care Research.

A section for homecare workers is under development. The Homecare Association contributed to early stages of its design and is liaising with researchers working on the project.  

In the meantime, the website has plenty of useful information that would be helpful to social care staff.
