ProconProject

PROCON is an international project aiming to improve continence care in nursing homes. It brings together stakeholders such as universities, research centres, and healthcare professionals to promote innovation in care practices. The project focuses on testing advanced technologies like smart continence wear and sensors that monitor toileting, while also exploring new methods in caregiving, digital skills, and entrepreneurship. A key part of PROCON is the creation of targeted training programmes for healthcare workers, designed to improve their ability to manage incontinence and support residents with dignity and care. These efforts aim to enhance the quality of life for both residents and caregivers. A multinational pilot study in Spain, Belgium, Finland, and Canada will evaluate the impact of this training, with the goal of raising care standards sustainably across Europe and beyond.
