About: Renal Unit / Renal Unit Nocturnal Dialysis

(as a service user),

For the last number of months I have been having night time dialysis 3 times a week.

I have found it ok, it frees up my days and is easier on my system. I has reduced the intake of tablets. I feel better than when on daytime dialysis.

I find the staff very good and helpful and very pleasant. I would like the nights to continue. The only thing I would like is a more comfortable bed. I feel I have a bit more energy. My appetite has all improved. I feel happier.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the renal unit.

I am very happy to hear you are enjoying nocturnal dialysis and having more free time during the days. It is great that your appetite has improved and your intake of medications has reduced.

Your positive feedback on staff is very much appreciated and I will ensure staff are informed of this feedback.

Kind regards

Fiona Owens
