Reply to "Continent Ileostomy WOC Nurse Questions/Feedback"

I still remember the first time I emptied my pouch. It would have been helpful to know to use a syringe to flush the catheter. Also, it would have been helpful to know that I should rinse the catheter using a cup of water, while still sitting on the toilet. I don’t think I got much training from the nurses. I now use baby oil as a lubricant, instead of surgilube—I use a smaller squeeze bottle and it’s much easier to use.
