The model, content creator and disability activist, who has been guiding curious viewers with welcome information and assistance about managing a healthy post-op lifestyle on her YouTube channel, GoAskAlexOnline, explains how to make a home more accessible to a person with an ostomy.

Alex says these small but important tips will be useful to those who may be new to ostomy care and management. “It took me a couple of years to get an understanding of what I needed in order to be comfortable at home. Rather than troubleshooting alone, I hope that new ostomates can utilize this instructional video and to live their best life possible – as soon as possible.”
