Urinary catheter insertion and changes at home
At-home urinary catheterization is performed by a state-certified nurse (IDE) on medical prescription, without the patient having to travel. Our nurses handle the insertion of an indwelling catheter, the periodic change of the catheter and collection bag, and the removal of the catheter. Insertion follows a rigorous sterile technique to prevent any urinary infection. This care is for patients with urinary retention, post-operative patients or those with reduced mobility. It fits naturally into your home nursing service and, if needed, your post-operative care.
Sterile technique and patient monitoring
Patient safety rests on strict asepsis at every step: preparing sterile equipment, disinfection, atraumatic insertion and securing the catheter. After insertion, the nurse provides regular monitoring — appearance and volume of urine, skin condition, absence of leakage or blockage, signs of infection — and teaches the patient and family the daily hygiene steps. A report is sent after each visit, and the change schedule is planned according to the protocol. If anything abnormal appears, we coordinate a home doctor without delay.
Coordination with discharge from CHU Ibn Sina
Many patients return home with a catheter after a hospital stay. SAMU Rabat coordinates continuity of care with CHU Ibn Sina, Hôpital Militaire Mohammed V and the private clinics of Agdal and Hay Riad: resuming the protocol, scheduling catheter changes and passing on instructions. We operate in every district of the capital — Hassan, Souissi, L’Océan — as well as Salé and Témara. Should a complication require a return to hospital, a private ambulance can be dispatched. Our teams are available 24/7.
Frequently asked questions
