We need more details. Review her DC ppwk again to see if any guidance is provided for what to do. If your mother has a suprapubic tube in her urinary bladder to drain urine the catheter should be changed monthly usually at a urologist’s office. It’s not as simple as changing a Foley catheter. When I was a HC nurse we weren’t allowed to change that sort of catheter; the law could be different in other states. If this is the case call a urologist and have them see her as you need to establish a relationship with a urologist because of her SP tube. Still need more info...
