Health advisers launch Dry Day

On Thursday, National Dry Day, health professionals will be available at special desks in major shopping centres to provide parents of children who wet the bed with information on how the problem can be successfully treated.

“We want to encourage parents to identify bed-wetting as a medical problem which can be successfully treated by contacting their family doctor, public health nurse or continence advisor,” said Dr Sami Ahmed, consultant Paediatrician and chairman of the Irish Enuresis Advisory Committee.
