Description:
This session presents a theoretical framework that was developed from a qualitative study with teens (13-18 years of age) examining how teens process the event of having an ostomy. The theory sheds light on how teens process the experience of having an ostomy and how healthcare providers can help the teen move thru the process to get back to their desired “normal” state.

Great comment to only teach them the basics because they will zone out. I would like to have heard more about this. I could go into such detail and it would be awesome to have a guideline of day 1, 2, 3... to present information.
