Alder Hey Hospital Logo

The Paediatric Continence and Enuresis Service in Sefton is led by a Specialist Nurse covering both North and South Sefton

 The service provides advice and support to children and young people with:

  • Toilet Training issues
  • Constipation and soiling
  • Daytime and Night-time wetting
  • Children and young people with additional and complex needs who may require a continence containment product.

We provide assessments in clinics, homes and via telephone, with ongoing support tailored to meet the needs of the individual.

Referrals

We accept referrals for children and young people from ages 4 to 19 years, who have already received sufficient input from the Health Visitor or School Nursing Team and require further support.

The child or young person must have a GP based in North or South Sefton and referrals are accepted from:

  • GPs

  • Health Visitors
  • School Nurses
  • Other health professionals
  • Educational settings
  • Voluntary sector
