Hollister makes ostomy and continence care products used by patients and nurses around the world. Our Yaletown store carries the Hollister New Image urostomy system for Vancouver customers.
Hollister Urostomy Supplies in Vancouver
Our Hollister collection brings together the two parts of a two-piece urostomy system. Pouches come in boxes of 10, and barriers come in packs of 5. Both belong to the Hollister New Image line and both are latex-free. See the full urostomy bags and urinary ostomy supplies collection for more choices. Staff at our Yaletown shop can answer fit questions before you order.
How the Hollister Urostomy System Works
A urostomy gives urine a new path out of the body through a stoma. A two-piece system splits the job between a skin barrier and a pouch. The barrier adheres to the skin surrounding your stoma and carries a flange. The pouch snaps onto that flange and collects the urine your body makes. You can swap the pouch while the barrier stays in place. That routine can spare your skin from repeated adhesive removal. Your ostomy nurse will show you the routine that suits you.
Hollister Urostomy Pouch Features
The New Image pouch is drainable, with a tap for emptying it quickly. An anti-reflux valve keeps urine from flowing back, which supports hygiene and comfort. ComfortWear panels give the pouch a soft, cloth-like feel against your skin. Belt tabs let you add an optional belt for extra security. The pouch has no latex and fits New Image skin barriers of the same size.
Beige or Transparent Hollister Urostomy Pouches
Our pouch listing offers the 57 mm flange in beige or transparent. Beige is the more discreet choice when you wear light clothing. Transparent lets you and your nurse see the pouch contents at a glance. Ask your nurse which colour suits your stage of recovery.
Hollister Urostomy Skin Barrier Features
Hollister designed the FlexWear skin barrier for secure, long-wear adhesion. You can cut the flat barrier to match your stoma. An integrated beige floating flange lets you slide a finger underneath while you apply it. Hollister makes this barrier with or without a tape border. The barrier is latex-free and pairs with New Image pouches of the same flange size.
Choosing Hollister Urostomy Flange Sizes
The flange is the ring where the barrier and the pouch lock together. The New Image range comes in 44 mm, 57 mm, and 70 mm sizes. Your pouch and barrier must share the same flange size. Your stoma size can change in the first weeks after surgery. Your ostomy nurse can measure it and tell you which flange size to buy. Our current pouch listing covers the 57 mm size, so ask us about other sizes.
Changing Your Hollister Urostomy Pouch and Barrier
Your ostomy nurse will set a change schedule that suits your skin and output. Change early if you notice leaks, itching, or edges that lift. Empty the pouch before it becomes too full or heavy. A full pouch pulls on the barrier and can break the seal. Keep spare pouches and barriers where you can reach them quickly. Wash your hands well before and after every pouch change.
Hollister Urostomy Skin Care Around the Stoma
Healthy skin keeps the barrier sticking well, so skin care matters every day. Clean the skin gently with water and let it dry before you apply a barrier. Remove the old barrier slowly, and support the skin as you peel. Redness, itching, or soreness beneath the barrier needs attention from your nurse. A leak under the barrier is a sign to check the fit.
Hollister Urostomy Travel and Daily Life Tips
Pack more supplies than you expect to use, in case plans change. Split them between your carry-on bag and your checked luggage, just in case. Carry a note listing your products and sizes in your wallet. That list also makes reordering simple when you are away from home. Our Vancouver guide to living with a urostomy covers travel, skin care, and troubleshooting.
Hollister Urostomy Supplies Compared With Other Urinary Products
A urostomy pouch sits on the abdomen and collects urine directly from the stoma. Leg bags and drainage bags connect to a catheter instead. Browse our urinary drainage bags and catheter accessories if you use a catheter. For bladder leakage without a stoma, see our incontinence pads and briefs. Each product solves a different problem, so match it to your situation. Our adult incontinence guide explains the main product types in plain language.
How to Order Hollister Urostomy Supplies
Start by checking your flange size and your preferred pouch colour. Add the pouches and the barriers to your cart in matching sizes. Many users reorder the same products on a regular schedule. Keep your receipt for any extended health claim you plan to make. Contact our team or phone (236) 466-2141 if you have a question about your order.

Hollister Urostomy Safety Tips
This page gives general information and does not replace advice from your ostomy nurse. Call your care team if your urine changes colour, smells strong, or looks cloudy. Seek urgent help if you have a fever with back or side pain. Stop using a product and see a clinician if a rash or sore skin develops. Both products are latex-free, but ask your nurse about other adhesive allergies.
