Students studying in this major will focus on the care and management of patients with an ostomy (those who have had a bowel or bladder diversion), and patients with continence conditions (those with bladder and bowel control and associated skin care issues). Students will need to be registered nurses working in a dedicated practice setting and will combine learning from the applied clinical sciences to the practice context. The major aims to take nurses who wish to specialise in the area to be competent in all aspects of ostomy and continence practice.
