Bladder retraining for a resident with urinary incontinence typically includes:

Explanation

Continence programs use scheduled/prompted voiding (every 2-3 hours), adequate fluids (1500-2000 mL/day unless contraindicated), pelvic floor exercises (Kegels) if cognitively able, monitoring and positive reinforcement. Fluid restriction (c) concentrates urine and causes UTI and dehydration; routine catheterization (b) is prohibited unless medically necessary (CMS F-690) due to CAUTI risk; relying on briefs alone (d) abandons continence goals and violates 42 CFR §483.25(e).
