Home Therapies encompasses both Home Haemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis
Peritoneal Dialysis - The peritoneal dialysis programme was established in 1982 and since that time has played a central role in offering patients an alternative form of renal replacement therapy that they can carry out at home. The staff involved in this service train patients to carry out their dialysis at home and follow patients up in outpatients and by home visits. Peritoneal dialysis patients requiring admission are usually admitted to one of the Renal Wards.
Home Haemodialysis -This service is located in new Dialysis Therapies Centre building ( Beside reception) and provides training on an out-patient basis in Peritoneal Dialysis or Haemodialysis for patients wishing to carry out dialysis in their own home rather than in the hospital setting.
