If Universal Healthcare Is Free,
Why Do We Have To Pay To Pee?
Picture

​
​With a Spinal Cord Injury, MS, Cancer or Spina Bifida you may lose the ability to  empty your bladder and rely on the use of intermittent catheters. Many people in B.C. are exposing themselves to a high risk of getting a Urinary Tract Infection because they cannot afford onetime use catheters. Their only option is to clean and reuse catheters increasing the risk of hospitalization with a UTI.
Please help us pressure the Government of B.C. to provide financial support for those burdened with this condition. One time use only hydrophilic (pre-lubed) clean intermittent catheters is The Best Practice of Care recommended by clinicians around the world.
​We need your support!
