Core Tip	Enhanced nursing care significantly alleviates anxiety and depression in colorectal cancer patients with stomas. By integrating systematic psychological intervention, standardized stoma site selection and management, personalized diet guidance, and continuous telehealth follow-up, this model effectively reduces stoma-related complications, improves self-care agency and overall quality of life, and achieves markedly higher nursing satisfaction, providing a robust clinical reference for holistic postoperative rehabilitation.
