This article considers the law which applies to the supply of incontinence equipment. It considers the liability of the employee and the primary care trust and possible defences to an action for negligence and the right to acquire records relating to an incident which has arisen. It also looks at the health and safety laws which apply to the provision of safe equipment, and considers the patient's right to access health services and the issues which arise when resources are limited.
