NZ donates colostomy bags to Samoa Cancer Society

The donation is part of a response to the cancer society’s request to assist gastric cancer patients for quality life after ostomy operations.

SCS CEO Shelley Burich says colostomy bags become an essential part of a patient’s everyday life after an operation so it is a priority for the SCS Team to ensure this service is readily available and consistent for patients especially during the COVID-19 lockdowns.
