Residents of long-term care facilities may not present with typical signs
of UTIs, and they may be more likely to have chronic urinary symptoms
, such as frequency, nocturia, or incontinence. Change in mental status
may be the most common symptom associated with UTI in long-term
care.
Other symptoms of a suspected UTI in this population include a
change in urine character, fever, declining functional status, and
hematuria. Evidence-based consensus criteria should be used to
determine when to initiate treatment.
