Improving urinary continence care for minoritised menopausal women
Minoritised menopausal women's stories on incontinence and hospital care
Link to organisation:
Full description:
This project listens to menopausal women from minoritised ethnic communities who’ve faced urinary incontinence during a hospital stay. We want to share their real stories with nurses, what helped, what didn’t, and how cared‑for they felt. Their voices shine a light on experiences that are too often overlooked, helping us understand what needs to change so hospital nursing care feels kinder, more respectful and truly inclusive.
