The ostomy awareness day is an annual event to support, educate, and raise awareness about stoma care. Some patients with gastrointestinal conditions require the surgical placement of a stoma either on a temporary or permanent basis. Patients with stoma require specialized care by enterostomal nurses and surgeons. Dr. Maher A. Abbas joined the nursing team at Al-Zahra Hospital Dubai to share and educate nurses on this important day.
