The keys to intervention in the global aspects that surround and determine the quality of life of the ostomized patient, in a training created specifically for the nursing professional"

Ostomized patients experience changes in their lives, mainly related to a social area, such as work, leisure or sexuality, which could result in their feelings of insecurity and fear of rejection being accentuated. It is therefore essential that the patient receives comprehensive care, with a multidisciplinary and specialized approach to the needs of the patient and his or her family, with a view to full physical, emotional and social recovery, leading to recovery.  

It is therefore essential to prepare the patient for this new situation. Preoperative consultations and the role of the nurse will play a key role in this adaptation and rehabilitation process. 
Throughout the process, the nurses will provide the patient with all the necessary training in self-care, hygiene, nutrition, etc., knowledge that he/she will acquire from the beginning.  

For all these reasons, the nurse will play a key role in the health promotion and health education of ostomized patients, helping and training them in this new situation. 

Hygiene, self-care, nutrition, medication and skin care are basic areas in the care of the ostomized patient. In addition, we add others such as continuity of care, beyond the hospital area, and recovery, through expert patient support, patient schools or rehabilitation.  

Adaptation to ostomy depends on factors such as the underlying disease, concomitant treatments, surgical intervention conditions, ostomy complications, post-surgical sequelae, prognosis, characteristics of the social and psychological environment, beliefs, values, attitudes towards the disease, physical limitations and pain, among others.  

The concept of quality of life has gained importance in recent times because, as life expectancy in the population has increased, the number of people with some degree of disability or with chronic diseases suffering from the effects of the disease and the medical or surgical treatment implemented has also increased. Because quality of life is based on subjective measurements, valid, reproducible and reliable assessment methods are required.
