Stoma Care
· Always handle the stomas with clean hands.
· Do not palpate with fingernails.
· Do not clean with alcohol or aggressive solvents.
· Do not pack any sharp objects with the stomas.
· Do not press the stomas against soiled surfaces, ink, or newsprint. The
stoma material is absorbent.
· Prevent items from resting or pressing against the stomas as
indentations will form on the pressure points. The stomas may return to
the normal shape after the pressure is relieved.
· Place baby powder on the stoma surface to reduce tackiness. This can
be reapplied as needed.
· Clean the stomas using a mild solution of soap and water.
· Apply baby powder to return the surface to a skin-like feel and
appearance.
