Ward 31 is the haemodialysis unit which cares for people who have problems with their kidneys and need long-term haemodialysis.
Haemodialysis will take place two or three times a week and this will usually take between three and five hours.
You will be cared for by several members of staff including one of our nephrologists, specialist nurses, renal dieticians and other support staff.
We provide haemodialysis for outpatients and for patients who are in hospital. In addition, haemodiafiltration is available if appropriate for your treatment.
Ward visiting times
- Monday to Friday 2-4pm and 6-8pm
- Saturday and Sunday 2-8pm
Close friends and family members may visit seriously ill patients at any time. However, please discuss this with the ward sister or nurse in charge.
