Ostomy Saskatchewan has put together a list of helpful resources and links for their members and visitors. They know it’s important to stay informed, so they have gathered information on various topics, including ostomy care, from recommended websites, articles, and forums.
They also work with other organizations to provide educational and supportive resources to those recovering from ostomy surgery. To stay engaged with the community, they offer a calendar of upcoming events, meetings, and gatherings.
