    Plan

    We assess your care home routines to find areas for improvement in your care home. Then we create an action plan and conduct a test implementation of TENA Solutions. After the test we provide you with the results and show you the measurable improvements.

    Coach

    When we initiate and execute the action plan we make sure that you have expert support and guidance throughout the entire process. Our experts at TENA will train, coach and support your staff in their daily work as TENA Solutions is implemented. Your staff will be supported with everything from implementing the individual care plans to the good-practice product selection as well as personal hygiene and continence care routines.

    Monitor

    In this phase we follow up on the results and measure how the implemented actions have made a difference. This is a repeated monitoring process since TENA Solutions is about continuous improvements. The results from this monitoring and measuring are used to create new action plans that help you improve even further.
