Summary

Many older adults have urinary incontinence. They often seek treatments, such as diapers, pads, or medications, from the community pharmacy. Pharmacists are trained to assist seniors with therapies that treat urinary incontinence. Our study will determine how much benefit there is if pharmacists try to provide more assistance for seniors with incontinence. Over a period of months, half of the people who talk to the pharmacist about their incontinence will be given general information about health and aging. The other half of the people will have a longer assessment and complete a questionnaire with the pharmacist. Then the pharmacist will call and have a follow-up visit to see how the incontinence symptoms have improved. We will compare both groups to see whose symptoms were improved.
