Largest Molicare Supplier In The UK: Regain Control With The NEW Molicare® Premium Elastic

Living with urinary incontinence can be tough and it's completely understandable to feel isolated and embarrassed. But we want you to know that you're not alone in this. With over 14 million people living with bladder problems in the UK, new treatments and resources are becoming available every day to keep sufferers comfortable, happy and clean. 

Those of us in the care industry are here to help people experiencing incontinence, offering support and understanding whenever they need it. Fear of leakage or odour may result in people withdrawing from social activities and seeking quieter environments; investing in top-quality incontinence products can help to change that. 

What Are The Symptoms of Urinary Incontinence?

There are two significant types of incontinence, but it’s not uncommon for people to experience a combination of symptoms:

Stress Incontinence: Occurs when urine leaks due to physical pressure and can happen when coughing, laughing or exercising. 

Urge Incontinence: Characterised by a sudden, strong urge to urinate, often followed by involuntary leakage. This type usually stems from a neurological disorder or urinary tract infection.

The Role of Carers

Did you know that incontinence affects two in three care home residents? With that, we can begin to recognise the weight and responsibility that comes with nurturing happiness and maintaining dignity for residents living in care homes.

Incontinence can take over a person’s life, often leaving them feeling self-conscious and uncomfortable. One of the many roles of a carer is to help residents feel like themselves again by providing quality care and supplying them with the best possible products. 

Support will vary between patients and your approach should always be personalised. A continence service assessment is a great place to start when trying to find a solution to make residents feel more comfortable. This tool helps establish a personalised plan for both the patient and carer to make sure they’re receiving the support and reassurance they need. 

MoliCare’s New Premium Elastic Range

With both residents and caregivers in mind, we’re determined to provide the highest quality incontinence products to keep patients clean, warm and comfortable. 

As part of the Hartmann Group, MoliCare provides an excellent, diverse range of products that are specifically formulated for individuals facing incontinence. They design effective products that help both residents and carers - that’s why we’re the leading MoliCare supplier in the UK! 

Unbeatable Incontinence Control

MoliCare has released its newest range of incontinence pads, utilising the best absorbent core technology available. Each innovative product is created with the goal of providing comfort, dryness and protection, all whilst remaining discreet (and affordable!). 

With the new and improved Premium Elastic, absorption isn’t a problem. Urine is absorbed up to 67% faster than other pads. That means that patients will experience more comfort and less risk of skin irritation. 

Feeling self-conscious and wary of incontinence when out in public? These pads are equipped with reliable odour neutralisation so that sufferers can feel confident and empowered when continuing their daily tasks. 

Making Caregiving Easier

MoliCare products are ideal for carers. With a 20% faster application compared to traditional slips, assisting patients can be much simpler. Caregivers will also experience up to 24% less overall body stress when choosing MoliCare products. 

Committed To Sustainable Care

We all know how important it is to look after our planet. That’s why we actively support environmentally friendly companies and manufacturers. 

MoliCare is not only committed to excellent resident care but also to sustainable initiatives. It’s important to note that all MoliCare pads are packaged using 100% recycled materials - now that’s a bonus!
