Ostomy and Wound Care. Certified Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nurses (CWOCN) are experts in the care of patients with wound, ostomy, and continence disorders. They are trained to address the physical, emotional, and social issues that accompany ostomy surgery (the creation of an outlet to a bag outside the body to collect wastes).
A bag called a stoma appliance is placed around the opening to allow stool to drain. Your colostomy may be short-term. If you have surgery on part of your large intestine, a colostomy allows the other part of your intestine to rest while you recover.
Your nurse will teach you how to care for your ostomy pouch and how to change it. You will need to empty it when it is about 1/3 full, and change it about every 2 to 4 days, or as often as your nurse tells you. After some practice, changing your pouch will get easier.
