Dry garments and linens should be provided whenever necessary to maintain the resident's dignity and prevent skin breakdown. Depending on the severity of the incontinence, this may require more frequent changes than every shift or every day. Nurses and care staff should assess the resident's needs and provide appropriate care accordingly.
