Getting haemodialysis treatment is no longer a problem for dialysis patients in Saratok.
Saratok Hospital’s haemodialysis unit, equipped with four haemodialysis machines, commenced its operation in September 2005
According to Robin Ak Koyong, Senior Medical Assistant in Haemodialysis Unit, Saratok Hospital, the service has relieved the finacial burdens of most kidney patients in the district.
With the availability of the service in Saratok, the patients no longer need to travel to Kuching or Sibu for their treatments.
As the haemodialysis unit is relatively new, the Saratok Hospital is making efforts to inform the communities in the district of this new service. As at end March 2006, the unit had given treatments to six patients.
