Katoomba Community Dialysis Centre

About this project

The NSW Government funded $4.7 million to deliver a new satellite Community Dialysis Centre at Blue Mountains Hospital.

The new purpose-built unit features six spacious treatment spaces that offer privacy and comfort to patients. It will operate as a satellite unit for the Western Renal Service which runs inpatient and outpatient dialysis treatment at Westmead, Blacktown, Mt Druitt and Nepean Hospitals.

The new unit brings essential dialysis services much closer to home for Blue Mountains and Lithgow patients. Being treated closer to home will be life-changing for patients who require frequent dialysis treatment, meeting the needs of local patients now and into the future.
