Cardinal Health™ Incontinence

At Cardinal Health, we know that incontinence care is about so much more than just keeping skin dry. Incontinence-associated dermatitis and pressure injuries can be life-threatening — lives that could be those of our brothers, sisters, parents or friends. The complete portfolio of innovative Cardinal Health™ Incontinence Products, coupled with our expert team, helps provide protection for your patients’ skin, for their dignity and, ultimately, for the reputation of your facility.

The team at Cardinal Health works closely with clinicians to combat the effects of incontinence, listening to their concerns and ideas about the products that can help solve daily challenges. Guided by that perspective, we develop new, advanced technologies and a simplified set of products to help you save as you care for incontinence.
