About the Journal

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Canadian Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence (CJWOC)!
​
The CJWOC is the official publication of Nurses Specialized in Wound, Ostomy and Continence Canada (NSWOCC). Replacing the NSWOC Advance, this peer-reviewed journal represents an important evolution toward a more scientific and academic-focused publication that reflects the high standards of our wound, ostomy and continence specialty in Canada.

The CJWOC publishes peer-reviewed manuscripts on topics related to wound, ostomy and continence nursing practice. CJWOC is a diamond open access journal publishing under the CC BY 4.0 license. 

NSWOCC is the publisher for the CJWOC. The CJWOC is published three times per year in French and English—in Spring, Fall, and Winter—and is available in both digital and print formats. Manuscripts are submitted by both Canadian and international authors. To learn more about author guidelines and to submit a manuscript to CJWOC please view our submission page.
