CONTINENCE & STOMA NURSE CLINIC
Coastal Urology is delighted to introduce the premier private continence nurse-led urological service in Townsville. Our compassionate team of nurses specialise in providing tailored support, assessments, treatments, and guidance to individuals aged 16 and above facing bladder and/or bowel challenges.
​
We take pride in offering swift access to specialized nursing care, specifically designed to address each patient's unique continence needs. Our service warmly welcomes all patients, regardless of insurance status, who seek assistance with various continence-related issues.
​
These include catheter management and education (IDC or SPC or CISC), prevention of catheter-related UTIs, urostomy care, mitrofanoff management, continence assessments, personalised management plans, and expert advice. Moreover, we provide invaluable support with funding applications to relevant departments, ensuring comprehensive care throughout the continence management journey.
GP referral are not necessary but we do encourage health summaries to be forwarded.
