Abstract
Comprehensive history-taking and clinical examination skills are examples of role development for a stoma care nurse specialist. Comprehensive history-taking is a thorough exploration of a patient's presenting complaint and the gathering of subjective information, while clinical examination is the gathering of objective information from a head-to-toe assessment or a focused assessment of a particular body system. This paper demonstrates the application of comprehensive history-taking and gastrointestinal clinical examination skills by the stoma care nurse in a clinical community setting, and explores their advantages and disadvantages in stoma care practice.
