Sometimes when he stands up, he starts using it and I have to make him sit back on the toilet to try and finish. Is there a way I can make him more aware of reminding me that he has to use the restroom or is this a matter of the inabilty to use his sphincter muscles to defecate?
After my LO become incontinent, I noticed that she really had no idea that she was going. She never even seemed to recognize that she had used the bathroom in her Depends.
We have a raised toilet seat. You can buy handicap toilets or go to a medical supply store and by a riser that attaches to the seat. It does make a difference when you aren’t “hunched over” on a lower toilet.when my husband was still mobile, we had an over-the-toilet bench with bars on it to help the person get up and down.
