Our Mission

The OttawaOstomy Support . is a volunteer-based, charitable organization dedicated to assisting and encouraging any one who has or will have intestinal or urinary tract diversions by providing peer support, education services and support to the family unit. 

Our chapter has several members who are qualified visitors, ready upon request, to offer support in both pre-op or post-op situations to both the ostomate and the spouse or significant other. (S.A.S.O.) We also promote these services to the medical professions and we educate the public about ostomates and ostomies.
