Continence Foundation of Ireland
The Continence Foundation of Ireland (CFI) was founded in September 2005 by a group of 10 independent gynaecologists and urologists in Ireland with an interest in female incontinence and pelvic floor reconstructive surgery. However we realised and acknowledged that the problem of incontinence would be best served by a multidisciplinary group, so that the scope of the Foundation now extends to all aspects of urinary and faecal incontinence across all impacted groups female and male, adult and child. A number of diverse continence organisations already exist in Ireland, including the Irish Continence Interest Group, the Irish Enuresis Advisory Group and the National Nurse Continence Advisors Forum, as well as a number of local groups, and several specialist organisations with an interest in this area, such as the Irish Association of Urology Nurses. CFI believe that significant gains could be achieved by aligning the efforts of all groups working in the area of incontinence, as well as other interested and affected parties (e.g. patient advocacy groups and industry representatives) to address the issue of incontinence in Ireland. We welcome membership from all medical disciplines and allied health professionals. |
