Pull ups

[Summerheather]

I think I'm going to have to start my Mum on pull ups - she's quite a big lady - does anyone have any suggestions - or experience on what one's to use?

A first step should be having her assessed by your local Continence Service on what they could provide, but you might well have to buy some pull-ups in yourself.

Thanks for that. I was thinking I'll have to have her assessed by the Continence Service because she's constantly having accidents - but I've heard they don't use very good pads.

My Mum now uses Tena pull ups - Super - not provided by Continence service but the only product which is effective. Have to pay for them ourselves - but save on washing!
