Incontinence pants

[Yellowmellow2]

Mum is quite particular about what she will use and refuses to use the pads supplied by her care home. She now uses incontinence pants which are quite expensive. Can anyone recommend a supplier where I can bulk buy?

[BunnyRuddington]

Can her SW help you out with this one Yellow?

[Yellowmellow2]

Thanks. She doesn’t have a SW. I’m happy to buy them but am looking for somewhere I can bulk buy rather than small packets.

Can you talk to the CH's GP about the incontinence service associated with the GP practice to see if they can advise you?

I'd also speak to the Bladder and Bowel Helpline to discuss sources of products at suitable volume prices:

I don't know if you're still looking but Boots will deliver in bulk. It's still the smaller packs but we used to order 16 packs of my mum's ones to be delivered to her care home as she used to like a particular brand. You usually get the 12 packs for the price of 10 or whatever savings too.

I used to order Tena pants for my Mum from Amazon. Same size packs, but I would buy a dozen at a time. Might be worth having a look.

Thanks very much everyone. Really useful.

The supermarkets have their own brands or try Complete Care Shop. If she is in a carehome they might have a budget for each residents continence products which I would ask about.
