SHIFTS
Use the Shifts tab to setup ’Shifts’ and ‘No Intervention Periods’.
Shifts: represents the time period the resident wears a continence product. The shift period has a start time,
which is when the care staff apply the continence product to the resident and an end time when they remove
the continence product. During this time period the continence product worn by the resident will have enough
product capacity to ensure the resident is kept dry if incontinence voids occur into the continence product.
No Intervention Periods: the time period that may impact on the toileting program and continence product
changes. For example; staff changeover times, resident sleep times or meal times. The user can nominate
specific time periods like breakfast, lunch and dinner, where toileting and product changes are not suitable or
if supervision and physical assistance is required.
Click the button from the left column in the Administration tab.
