This is a retrospective cohort study. In the investigation the clinical use of the Skin and leakage protocol (SLEP) is to be investigated. The SLEP is a generic digital diary form filled out to give information about the current status of continence care among care home residents. The SLEP tracks the number of leakage occurrences and daily skin health over a period of time with the purpose of assisting care staff in making decisions regarding continence care. The SLEP has been introduced at several United kingdom National Health Service care homes and with this investigation the investigators want to retrospectively analyse the data to determine the clinical usefulness of the form. The primary objective of the study is to describe any changes in product leakage rate at the baseline and follow up time period.
