| Abstract | Supplemental Digital Content is Available in the Text. The Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses Society believes the tri-specialty certified nurse (Certified Wound Ostomy Continence Nurse [CWOCN]) or advanced practice tri-specialty certified nurse (Certified Wound Ostomy Continence Nurse-Advanced Practice [CWOCN-AP]) possesses unique knowledge, expertise for assessment, and first-line management of incontinence as well as for prevention of incontinence. The CWOCN or CWOCN-AP provides care and consultation in the treatment of potential and actual skin complications through absorption, and containment, in persons with urinary, fecal, or dual incontinence. This executive summary describes the role of the CWOCN or CWOCN-AP in the delivery of continence care across care settings.
