Why Join the Continence Nurse Community?
Joining the community at ContinenceNurse gives nurses access to specialized news, direct access to "Ask an Expert" (with answers from Diane Newman, RNC, MSN, FAAN, CRNP), as well as access to the Practice Pearls forum.

Access to Ask an Expert
Diane Newman answers your specific questions about incontinence and other pelvic health issues. All questions are anonymous and are stored in a searchable database online so Diane's answers can be helpful to all members.
Access to News for Nurses
News about all aspects of pelvic health and nursing issues, including announcements about relevant meetings and pending events.
Access to the Practice Pearls Forum
This forum has been designed for nurses to interact with other nurses by providing information, support and ideas for solving difficult cases in their professional practices. The forum will require a login and will ask basic information about your patient, his or her age, gender and setting. You will then have an opportunity to describe the case -- basic problem description (short history, co-morbid conditions, treatments, therapies and products tried) and then ask for specific assistance. Your case will then be posted and other nurses can make helpful comments about what worked for them in similar circumstances.
We are eager to expand our forums to include topics that may be of interest to our members. Please let us know what kinds of forums you'd like to see on the website - send us an email.
