Continence Aids Payment Scheme

The Australian Government has set up a new scheme, Continence Aids Payment Scheme (CAPS), which provides a payment to eligible people, who have permanent and severe incontinence, to help assist to meet some of the costs of their continence products. Download the CAPS Application form & CAPS Guidelines

The CAPS provides a greater choice and flexibility when choosing the right continence product. You can now purchase the most appropriate continence products, from the supplier of your choice.

Those eligible for the CAPS system will receive an annual tax exempt payment from Medicare. According to the Australian Government Department of Health and Aging, the CAPS payment will be up to $497.79 for the 2010-11 financial year.

MoliCare Super is an all-in-one incontinence brief with Dry-Plus fluid distribution layer, superabsorbent and wetness indicator. It is suitable for use by patients with very severe urinary and faecal incontinence and also for restless or highly dependant patients.

MoliCare also offers maximum security to active patients with less pronounced degrees of incontinence, enabling them to continue or return to their normal way of life without fear of embarrassing incidents.

The extra high absorbency of MoliCare Super Plus makes it ideal for overnight use.

Description:

The MoliCare in-all-one incontinence pad is designed to manage severe urinary and faecal incontinence. It is ideal for highly dependent residents in aged care facilities or in the community.

The unique, breathable side panels in Molicare air active provides comfort to the residents and healthier skin. It is available in three absorbency levels and various sizes.

Molicare also features a Dry-Plus fluid distribution layer, super absorbent and a wetness indicator. The reinforced absorbent layer in the crotch guarantees high absorbency and extra moisture retention. The highly absorbent core protects skin against rewetting while the non-woven top layer covers the entire surface helping to protect the skin and keep it drier. Soft, water repellent anti-leak cuffs provide additional leakage protection.

The complete elastic foil backing, the anatomical design and the elastic led gathers ensure a snug fit to the body contours. The briefs can be worn inconspicuously inside normal underwear.

The word MoliCare in the crotch area is also the wetness indicator. It is extremely useful in the care of severely ill or disoriented patients. When it dissolves, the product needs changing. This system is not only more pleasant to the patient but also more cost-effective.

Refastenable adhesive tapes enable an easy use.

Environmental information: protective backing material of environmentally-friendly polythene; the cellulose fluff is environmentally compatible due to bleaching without conventional chlorine.
