Managing Peristomal and Stoma Complications

Another new, exciting addition to the Global Learning Center is a course on Managing Peristomal and Stoma Complications. This course has been designed to help the user understand different characteristics and treatment of peristomal and stoma complications. The course also includes tips on stoma marking. Members who have already taken the course said the following:

“WOW! This is one of the best ostomy courses that I have taken.”

“Even though I have done this for almost 10 years I was captivated by the way it was taught.”

“You guys hit a home run with this one.”

This course is available in the Educational Offerings > Ostomy section only after you login.
