Ostomy Academy presented the first Ostomy Academy:
"Bridging the Gap in Ostomy Nutrition"

 

 

   Registered Dietitian and speaker Amalia Karlin gave a very helpful presentation as an ileostomate and practicing dietitiian. She reviewed questions submitted before hand and addressed many of the themes in her presentation. In addition, the resources are shared, such as our ostomy nutrition webpage and guides, to help you learn more about this important topic.

​

   This Ostomy Academy was  sponsored by UOAA and Hollister.
