"Needs support "

About: Northern General Hospital

As a renal dialysis patient I find there is a serious lack of support for people with mental health issues caused by having dialysis three times a week aswell as dealing with kidney failure. The mental implications of having a life threatening illness gets too much for some people there seriously needs to be practical and physical help at the renal unit for those unable to cope.
