Tips for Ostomates when Leaving the House

Try to practice the following tips:

1. Carry a small bag where you have ostomy supplies whenever you leave the house. In case of emergency, you have something to change with. Bring along wipes, alcohol and even an extra shirt.

2. When traveling by car, do not put ostomy supplies in the trunk where it is hot and the wafer can melt and be deformed.

3. Be cautious about food and water when you are in other countries.

4. In a place where weather is hot, be prepared to change more often.
