People using peritoneal dialysis at home may need practical assistance or qualified nursing support. We begin by reviewing the existing treatment plan and discussing requirements with the relevant care team, with consent.
An individual review before care
We discuss the requested support, dialysis-team instructions, equipment and supplies. Treatment-related tasks require appropriately trained staff and a confirmed clinical plan.
Support and communication
Depending on the agreed scope, care may involve support with routines, assessment of catheter-site care needs and reporting concerns to the dialysis team.
Planning with the right professionals
Any involvement in exchanges or other treatment tasks must be specifically confirmed with the treating team and qualified nursing staff before services are arranged.
Planning your care
This service is considered individually. It is not booked as routine personal support; clinical suitability, required competencies and availability must be confirmed.
