For some people, it is necessary to use continence products such as pads, pants, catheters, urine drainage bags or bedding protection products to manage their condition. For some people, the continence products may be needed long term. Consequently, the cost of these products becomes very expensive, putting unreasonable pressure on the household budget. |
Għal xi nies, huwa neċessarju li jużaw prodotti ta’ kontinenza bħal pads, qliezet, kateters, boroż biex jassorbu l-awrina jew prodotti biex jipproteġu l-għata u l-kisi tas-sodda biex jimmaniġġjaw il-kundizzjoni tagħhom. Għal xi nies, il-prodotti ta’ kontinenza jistgħu jkunu meħtieġa għal żmien fit-tul. Għalhekk, l-ispejjeż għal dawn il-prodotti jsiru jiswew ħafna, u jpoġġuhom taħt pressjoni bla raġuni biex ilaħħqu mal-baġit tad-dar. |
