My dad is 92 y/o and lives in assisted living. He has a Supra pubic catheter. He has been instructed in emptying his bag into a urinal to minimize splashing. Unfortunately there is still splashing, and there is also some leaking at night, causing a horrible smell in both rooms. They charge an extra $150 for more cleaning. Do you have any suggestions on eliminating this odor?

There is a odor eliminator you can try called zero odor or odorX. I heard about it on a radio show for home improvements. Hope it works.
Zero Odor.com has a good one. Good Luck. Do you also flush the catheter? That will help with odor also.
There are drops you or your medical provider of the cath can get to put in the bag and toilet. Also, amazon sells a product called 'ZEP', its an odor remover, sold as a gallon. Just fill a spray bottle with water and a about 1/4 cup of Zep and spray the room carpet/chair.
