Question 1:
Where can I find information on Enterostomal Therapy (ET) services or ET nurses in Saskatchewan?
Answer:
You can use the “Find a NSWOC” search tool available on:
To search for ET (NSWOC) nurses in Saskatchewan, enter “Saskatchewan” in the search field without adding any other filters. This will generate a list of all NSWOC nurses in the province.
Question 2:
Can you confirm if the reimbursement for ostomy supplies in Saskatchewan is 50%?
Answer:
For the most up-to-date information on ostomy supply reimbursement in Saskatchewan, you will need to contact an NSWOC nurse. They will be able to verify the current policies and requirements. While Ostomy Canada previously had a document outlining financial support available in each province, I currently do not have access to it.
