Our Support Workers are able to help in the practical as well as the emotional aspects of stoma care journey; hence, you are never alone in the journey.

What is Stoma Care, and Why Does It Matter?

Stoma is an artificial opening that is surgically made which is critical for the body to discharge wastes properly. It is a device that is much needed due to inescapable conditions such as Crohn’s disease, colorectal cancer, or bladder issues. Although it seems like quite a big shift, the right treatments can be done to you without feeling any discomfort, irritation, or infections. You can then concentrate on your life path without fear of the stoma coming out.
