How dialysis referrals work
Dialysis is prescribed for patients with renal disease, where the kidney is not able to effectively filter toxins and waste and remove excess fluid from the blood. It requires specialised and ongoing medical care. There are two types of dialysis: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis Dialysis patients have compromised immunity and frequent visits to the hospital/ centre can expose them to unwanted infections or unexpected irregularities, especially during the current health guidance and service availability. On one hand, the whole thought of starting dialysis can be overwhelming and on the other hand, one may not even know where to start. There may be several questions in the mind, which is why it is important to seek medical advise.
