Colostomy Care is a specialized aspect of gastrointestinal and ostomy nursing that encompasses the systematic assessment, maintenance, and patient education required to manage a colostomy, distinguishing it from other forms of bowel management by its focus on the external diversion of the colon through a surgically created stoma.
