Stoma bag changes
The nurse can help prepare the area, remove the old bag carefully, clean and dry the surrounding skin and apply the replacement system according to the product and clinical instructions. The family can ask questions about the routine and observe the steps so confidence builds between visits.
Skin care around the stoma
Protecting the skin around the stoma helps the appliance fit and reduces avoidable irritation. The nurse works with the prescribed or recommended products and does not introduce a new barrier, powder or adhesive without appropriate guidance. Leaking, persistent soreness or a changing stoma should be reported to the surgeon or stoma nurse.
General ostomy management at home
Families may need help with disposal, supplies, routine observation and planning for a visit outside the home. The nurse can reinforce the written instructions and document what was done. Diet, reversal, medication and complication decisions remain with the treating surgeon or clinician.
What a home visit can include
- Colostomy bag change according to the patient’s routine
- Cleaning and protection of skin around the stoma
- Practical supply and disposal guidance
- Communication of changes that need surgical review
