Abstract: | - ? Stoma care nurses aim to meet the physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs of patients.
- ? Development of stoma care nursing services has varied, as it has been the responsibility of each nurse, resulting in differences in the mode of delivery.
- ? This qualitative and quantitative study involved stoma care nurses from six areas in Essex, to assess patient perception of the service they received.
- ? Overall, the satisfaction level was high despite differences in delivery of care, especially timing and frequency of visits at home.
