Delivering Catheter Care in Brisbane

A blocked catheter at 2am in Brisbane means an ED, and which ED depends on where you live in a city with four of them. Every catheter participant of ours carries a written emergency plan naming the escalation pathway, because that decision should never be made for the first time mid crisis.

Frequently Asked Questions | Catheter Care Brisbane

Can you do scheduled catheter changes at home in Brisbane?

Yes. Indwelling and suprapubic changes happen at home on the schedule your urology or spinal team sets, which for most participants removes a recurring hospital outpatient trip. The change is documented and the treating team gets the record.

What happens if my catheter blocks outside business hours?

You follow the written emergency plan we build with you at intake, which says exactly who to call and which hospital to attend if it comes to that. Where our on-call nurse can resolve it at home, an ED trip is avoided entirely, which is the point of the plan.
