Catheter Change at Home — in simple words
A catheter is a thin soft tube that drains urine from the bladder into a bag. It has to be changed every few weeks so it does not block or cause infection. Our nurse comes home and changes it cleanly, so the patient does not have to go to the hospital.

When do you need catheter change at home?
- The doctor has advised a catheter change (usually every 2–4 weeks for a Foley catheter)
- Urine is not draining, or the bag stays empty for hours
- The catheter is leaking around the pipe
- Urine looks very cloudy or smells bad (inform your doctor too)
How our nurse does it at your home
- Nurse checks the old catheter, the date it was put in and the doctor’s note
- Hands are washed and a fully sterile kit is opened
- Old catheter is removed gently after emptying the balloon
- New catheter of the right size is put in with sterile gel
- New urine bag is fixed and the family is shown how to keep it clean
What to keep ready before the nurse comes
- Doctor’s prescription or discharge summary
- New catheter and urine bag of the size the doctor wrote (we can bring them on request)
- Good light, a clean sheet and some privacy
Safety first: If there is blood in the urine, fever with shivering, or severe pain in the lower belly, call your doctor first. If the catheter cannot be passed easily, the nurse will not force it and will advise a urologist visit. In an emergency call 108 / 112.
