The clinic operates within the hospital environment, providing dialysis treatment for patients whose kidneys are unable to adequately remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood.

At Eden Gardens Private Hospital, patients have access to renal care within a professional healthcare environment, supported by the medical and nursing professionals involved in their treatment.
The availability of dialysis within the hospital provides convenient access to an essential treatment for patients requiring ongoing kidney care.
The kidneys perform several essential functions, including removing waste products and excess fluid from the blood. They also help regulate electrolytes and maintain the body’s internal chemical balance.
When kidney function becomes severely reduced, the kidneys may no longer be able to perform these functions effectively.
Dialysis helps perform some of these functions by removing waste products and excess fluid from the blood.
There are different forms of dialysis, and the appropriate treatment depends on the patient’s medical condition. For patients receiving haemodialysis, blood is circulated through a dialysis machine where it passes through a specialised filter before being returned to the body.
The treating doctor or renal specialist determines the most appropriate treatment for each patient.

Patients receiving ongoing treatment require regular medical assessment and monitoring.
Their healthcare team may monitor laboratory results, blood pressure, fluid levels and other aspects of their health to help manage their condition and ensure that treatment remains appropriate.
Effective kidney care involves more than dialysis treatment alone.
Patients with chronic kidney disease may require ongoing medical management, regular investigations and monitoring of their overall health.
Depending on the patient’s condition, their treatment plan may include medication, dietary guidance, fluid management and regular consultations with their healthcare professionals.
Laboratory investigations can also provide important information about kidney function and other aspects of a patient’s health.

Patients will receive information from their healthcare team regarding their treatment schedule, preparation requirements and what to expect during their sessions.
