The urinary incontinence (UI) guideline recommends a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of incontinence, one of the most costly, widely underreported and underdiagnosed health problems in the United States today. While nurses are not the only deliverers of care, the guideline places them on the front line in the identification, treatment, and prevention of incontinence.
