The Total TENA Offer
At the heart of our Total TENA Offer is TENA Services and our commitment to helping you achieve Best Practice Continence Management
Individualised continence care is at the heart of TENA Services. Together we look to apply best-practice incontinence management – caring for each individual in the best possible way. Which can provide benefits throughout your nursing home.
We understand that good-practice individualised continence care doesn't just happen overnight, it is a continual process. Planning, coaching and monitoring are all required. That's why TENA Services is split into three key steps, Plan, Coach and Monitor - Read More
Continence care is critical to resident well-being. As such, it is one of the most important tasks performed by nursing home staff. But it is also one of the most time consuming and often one of the most physically demanding.
With the right care, incontinence can be better managed so the resident has more comfort, dignity and independence. And it can also make life easier for nursing staff.
TENA Services can help with training sessions that explore good practice individualised care, based on our working experience from over 20,000 healthcare institutions around the world during the past 40 years. This can help you achieve the following:
Benefits of TENA Services
Improved resident well-being
Individualised product selection and care routines help residents enjoy more comfort, mobility, dignity and an overall better quality of life, they also help minimise leakage and the amount of moisture in contact with skin. This leads to fewer skin treatments and, ultimately, fewer admissions to hospital or full-time residential care. This enhances their physical comfort, social functioning and psychological wellbeing.
Reduced staff workload
With more effective use of products, care staff can avoid the strain of unnecessary changes of incontinence protection, bedding and clothing, and also spend less time providing intrusive skin treatments. With more time for the more rewarding work, staff get more job satisfaction focusing on what they do best – caring. Additionally there is TENA Net which is your 24hr online continence consultant helping with issues such as balancing cost and care, product choice and a discussion forum to post questions and help others with replies.

Lower total costs
Finally, individualised care based on accurate resident assessments leads to lower product consumption, less leakage and laundry, and fewer incontinence-related skin conditions. Of course, this means lower total costs for the nursing home.
Product consumption is reduced through good-practice individualised care. But it’s in the costly consequences of incontinence that customers save the most resources. Better care means less money spent on skin treatment and laundry. And better resident and staff well-being ensure the costs of patient care, personnel recruitment and training do not go through the roof. Read more about consequence costs
