AIM: This paper reports on the publication of a joint statement on minimum standards for continence care in the UK. METHODS: A multidisciplinary working party were tasked with creating standards for both training and education in continence care, as well as explicit standards for a framework of service delivery. This was done through a process of extensive consultation with relevant professional bodies. RESULTS: The standards suggest a modular structure to continence training, including basic, male, female, catheter care etc. Discussions on service provision cover primary care through to expert tertiary centres. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first attempt to standardise continence care and training for all health care professionals nationally. The document is available on the United Kingdom Continence Society website www.ukcs.uk.net.
