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."

Alex has also posted other educational YouTube clips to support new ostomates on their journey: “ Ileostomy Q&A (one month post-op) ” and “ Ileostomy Q&A (one year post-op) ”, “ The Difference Between a ‘One Piece’ and a ‘Two Piece’ Why I Use a ‘One Piece ’”.
