WELCOME OSTOMATES!

The North Sound Ostomy Support Group is a non-profit, volunteer-based support group dedicated to promoting quality of life for people with ostomies or continent diversions and their caregivers and families through information, support, advocacy, and collaboration.

OSTOMY ACADEMY

Tune into UOAA’s next Ostomy Academy with guest Dr. Neilanjan Nandi to understand the numerous factors that influence sexual health and satisfaction for people with ostomies. Gain strategies for cultivating intimacy and learn how to initiate discussions on sexuality and intimacy with your medical team. We’ll also discuss important issues related to an ostomate’s reproductive health.

UOAA VIRTUAL OSTOMY CLINIC

Ostomies change bodies and lives. People living with an ostomy need personalized suggestions and ongoing support from medical experts who really understand ostomies. In the healthcare system today, too many ostomates do not have the regular access to a certified ostomy nurse they need for a successful health journey. This is why UOAA has partnered with The Wound Company – to bring certified ostomy nurses to ostomates and their caregivers across the United States virtually.
