Community PostOne of the benefits of community working is providing own supply of water and drinking as much as I want between visits. My challenge is not the drinking it is finding a loo when my bladder is full. As I have over active bladder this is really cumbersome at times. I cover Trustwide wide home visits. Some visits I can travel 40 to 50 minutes to reach a patient's home. Access to a toilet has been particularly difficult during the pandemic. Asking to use someone's loo in a pandemic is made even more difficult when you wear a nurses uniform. Our usual stops eg GP practices doors have been closed and going into a supermarket in uniform is debatable at the best of times but in the early stages there were queues to get in compounding the challenge further.
