Our nurses provide intermittent catheterization at home to relieve urinary retention from long-standing chronic conditions. You get the relief you need without a trip to the hospital or clinic, as long as it's not an emergency.
Catheterization supplies can be specialized, and some items are hard to find locally on short notice. If you don't have what's needed on hand, tell us when you book so we can sort it out ahead of time.
Pro-tip: Nurses cannot re-insert indwelling (Foley or Suprapubic) catheters or re-inflate the balloon. Check Island Health: Find Care for local hospital wait times, or call 911 if it's an emergency.
