Iliostomy ahead

Aloha,
I'm coming to the end of my treatment plan with Robotic LAR (lower anterior resection) in 2 weeks. They told me they'll be setting up an iliostomy bag. I'm sure they'll tell me all about it after surgery. I understand what it is. I'd like more info on: care tips, can I leave it off for any time, what are good food choices/preparation, are there things/ways I can prepare my home and food for ease when I return from surgery.
If anyone has the time and notes for me, I'd greatly appreciate it.
