This resulted in a decision to start parent education in groups. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eleven parents, 5 couples and 1 single parent to six children, aged 5–7 years participated. The education was performed on two occasions with a month intervals. Bladder and bowels informa- tion was given. The parents were asked to write down the pattern of the incontinence as perceived of themselves by filling in a scatter-plot graph for two weeks period at home. On the second training session, the scale will be evaluated jointly and individual tools will be given. RESULTS 10/11 parents were positive to meet parents in the same situation. One parent will not attend the second training session the child had other problems to be investigated. The majority of parents were pleased with the information they received prior to the first occasion. CONCLUSIONS Family education given in group with guidance of urotherapists, enterostomal therapist and psy- chologists could be a complement to individual standard treatment of bowel and bladder problems to give tools and motivation for the family to continue the treatment. 09:40–09:50 S1-3 (LO) THE EVALUATION OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE VOIDING SCHOOL INTERVENTION TO PRIMARY CARE SETTING – A STUDY PROTOCOL Anneli SAARIKOSKI  1 , Seppo TASKINEN  1 and Anna AXELIN  2 1) Helsinki University Central Hospital, Children's Hospital, Helsinki, FINLAND - 2) University of Turku, Department of Nursing Science, Turku, FINLAND PURPOSE The goal of intervention research is to implement clinically and economically beneficial interventions into health care practice, i.e. getting evidence into practice.

The first results of its effectiveness and acceptability from the children's perspective are promising and encourage its implementation in clinical practice. The aim of this paper is to present a study protocol for the evaluation of implemen- tation of the VS.
