To begin a bladder training program,teach the client to use the commode,bedpan,or urinal every 2 hours.If used frequently enough,this will prevent accidents and establish a routine.Fluid intake should be restricted at night,and a Foley catheter should be used only for urine retention.The client should empty his or her bladder when the urge occurs and should not hold the bladder.
