About the Ostomy Manitoba Association

Our mission statement

Ostomy Manitoba Association Inc. (OMA) is a volunteer-based organization dedicated to assisting all persons facing life with gastrointestinal or urinary diversions by providing emotional support, experienced and practical help, instructional and informational services through its membership, to the family unit, associated care givers and the general public.

 

What we do

  • We hold monthly meetings from September to May where our members can exchange information and experiences with each other. We also run groups for spouses and significant others (SASO) and a young person’s group (Stomas R Us).

  • We publish our newsletter, Inside/Out, eight times a year.
