How a hemodialysis patient feels

Hemodialysis patients are bound to a repetative daytime ritual. Which becomes very boring, restricting and at times very frustrating, especially if they want to take a holiday for more than a couple of days. Most patients find themselves abjectly dependent on a procedure, medical facility or group of medical personnel. But all these distressing feelings can be alleviated by taking them out of their repetative rtitual and environment, with the guarantee that the place they are going to on holiday, has an efficient and reliable hemodialysis unit.

Who and where are we?

Kusadasi is a fishing town well known for its great touristic capacity. Located on the west coast of Turkey, only 18 kilometers from the ancient city of Ephesus and the house of the virgin Mary, which is a centre of pilgrimage.

Eight months ago, a 50 bedded officially approved hospital was opened in Kusadasi.

I, Dr. Sancar Eke, as the internist of the hospital and the responsible doctor for dialysis unit and my collegue, Dr. Figen Cetin are directors of the hemodialysis unit, working along side very experienced dialysis nurses and technicians. The hospital also offers a wide range of specialist doctors in all branches of medicine with updated technical equipment.

About the unit

KH-Hemodialysis Unit comprises of 8 Fresenius 4008-B hemodialysis machines. There are laboratory facilities to messure all biochemical and hematologic parameters required for a patient in kidney failure, requiering dialysis. We apply bicarbanate as the dialisate.

The hollow fibre dialysers are in F5 and F6 types (1 and 1.2 m2). If required, there are different sizes of dialysers. 

 

Invitation

We would like to invite hemodialysis patients to our hospital, not only to continue their treatment, but most important, to enable them to take a holiday at the same time. Give them the chance to get away from their restricted environment at home with the added assurance that they will receive the best medical attention on the Aegean Coast, in a stress-free, friendly environment.

How about accomodation / where will I stay ?

We will also, given prior notice, make it our responsibility to find them the most comfortable, convenient accomodation. If desired, we will help you find a hotel to stay during your holiday in Kusadasi … 
We would like to emphasise that there will be much more available rooms in hospital to welcome hemodialysis patients .

 

Prior notification

All you need do is notify us at least 2 weeks prior to departure. Supply us with a brief medical report, clarifing previous hemodialysis treatment.
