What is complex bowel care?
Complex bowel care is a type of personal support for people experiencing chronic issues with their bowel health.
It is a specialised support provided by trained support workers and carers. There are clear standards and guidelines for providing complex bowel care in both the health and disability sectors.
Some people feel embarrassed talking about their bowel movements, but a healthy bowel and digestive system is important to your quality of life. There is no such thing as ‘normal’ bowel function, but everyone has bowel habits that are usual for them.
By undertaking your training with us, you will learn to:-
- following all care instructions noted in the Complex Bowel Care Plan with identified outcomes
- following personal hygiene and infection management procedures
- maintaining the participant’s dignity, respect and consent throughout all activities
- observing and recording changes to bowel habits
- reporting issues arising from the delivery of complex bowel care
- administering laxatives, enemas or suppositories, including non-routine medication as required
- identifying when to seek advice from a health practitioner (e.g. registered nurse or general practitioner).
