Factors Associated With Toileting Disability in Older Adults Without Dementia Living in Residential Care Facilities

Abstract

Multicomponent and multidisciplinary prevention and management efforts should be designed for residents without dementia. Future studies testing the efficacy of prevention efforts are needed and should include treatments for incontinence; physical activity programs targeting impairments with walking, standing, sitting, stooping, reaching, and grasping; and therapy to improve dressing, bathing, and transferring skills.
