The WOCN’s web-based clinical decision support tool for peristomal skin assessment (PSAG) has been updated with more diverse reference photographs, more supportive evidence, and less manufacturer visibility.  Attend this interactive session to become familiar with the new tool and leave knowing you can confidently refer your non-specialty colleagues or inexperienced WOC nurse colleagues to psag.wocn.org for support in helping ostomy patients with damage to peristomal skin.
