Inpatient Wards

The SKI has two wards for inpatients (Renal E Floor and Renal F Floor) where we look after people that have problems with how their kidneys are working. The patients that are looked after here need:

  • Urgent or emergency dialysis treatment
  • A kidney transplant
  • Tests to find out what's wrong with their kidneys

You will meet us if you:

  • Need complex tests and investigations to find out what is causing your kidney disease
  • Are having a kidney transplant
  • Are unwell and need extra support from renal doctors and nursing staff

Some patients may be treated as a day case.

We can help you by:

  • Finding the cause of your kidney disease
  • Treating the symptoms causing your inpatient stay 
  • In many cases, treat the cause of the illness that means you need to stay in hospital, for example, an infection or dialysis access problems

There are other members of the healthcare team that can help during your stay:

  • Renal Pre-treatment Advisor
  • Social Worker
  • Clinical Psychologist
  • Physiotherapist
  • Occupational Therapist
  • Transplant Practitioner
  • Dietitian
