(Advice to Parents)

It is a traumatic time when you are first told your child needs a stoma. Surgery may need to be carried out urgently, often within hours of your baby’s birth, and there may be little time for consultation and discussion. You will find that hospital staff are caring and supportive, but you may not have been able to take in all the information you need at once.

Never be afraid to ask for help, advice and explanations. This site aims to give you additional practical advice, reassurance and information about the day-to-day care of a baby or child with a stoma – whether it is created as a temporary or permanent measure – and to answer the many queries that are bound to arise.
