1 North of Tyne APC 1 Prescribing Guidelines for Stoma Accessories (Adult) November 2015 (Third party ordering link updated June 2017) (Review November 2017) Background This guideline has been developed by a group of healthcare professionals including nurse specialists across the north of Tyne area (see contact details on page 6) and pharmacists employed by Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals FT and NECS. The guideline is intended for use by prescribers to give guidance on the types of stoma accessories available and the appropriateness of prescribing, a list of recommended products and usual quantities to prescribe. Principles All accessories to be used under advice of stoma care nurse (SCN) specialist If quantities ordered exceed those listed without good reason, refer patient to stoma care nurse specialist Stoma underwear should not be prescribed unless the patient develops a parastomal hernia and/or has been advised to wear support underwear by the stoma care nurse specialist Stoma will be oedematous for initial 6-8 weeks, reducing and changing shape during this time. Therefore products often need to be accordingly during this time. The stoma will be reviewed by SCN regularly and any necessary changes made. Guidance for issuing prescriptions requested by a third party are available on the North of Tyne Area Prescribing Committee website: pdf This guidance incorporates a set of guiding principles to support the management of prescriptions requested by third parties, such as appliance contractors. 1 Representing Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS FT, Northumberland HealthCare FT, Northumberland Tyne & Wear NHS FT, Newcastle North and East CCG, Newcastle West CCG, North Tyneside CCG, Northumberland CCG, Community Pharmacies North of Tyne 1
