To ensure you receive proper care and treatment, we would require you to bring the following, where applicable:
- Referral form (enclosed, to be endorsed by renal medical officer and above), if any
- Dialysis prescription
- Dialysis flowsheet of last 3 sessions
- Recent blood tests with serological results (e.g. for Hepatitis B)
- Other relevant medical information (e.g. discharge, medication list etc)
Remember your kidneys used to clean your blood 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! When you skip treatments, extra fluid will need to be removed when you go back for dialysis and this may make your next treatment harder on yourself.
If you feel unwell on your dialysis day and feel unfit for treatment, you should seek for immediate medical attention and make a call to the clinic to inform them with regards to your condition.
If you have a planned medical appointment outside of the clinic and you need to change your dialysis treatment time for that day, you should let the clinic Head Nurse know in advance and give them as much notice as possible. We strongly advise that you should arrange all medical appointments on a non-dialysis day.
Wear comfortable clothes that allow easy entry to your access site (e.g. Short sleeve tops). You can also bring a blanket for your own use during treatment as it may get cold.
