Local guidance on diagnosis,
screening, management and referral of patients with
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) based on the NICE CKD
Guidelines (CG73
September 2008)
The medical staff of
Basildon Hospital Renal Unit will provide advice
about the guidelines and how to manage patients
including referral to secondary care. We are keen to
avoid unnecessary referrals but at the same time we
wish to ensure that patients are managed correctly.

referrals:

switchboard (01268 524900) or during office hours
call 01268 39 4775/4774
For further non-urgent advice:
Write to the renal consultants at the Trust address
or by fax on 01268 39 4829
Advice is also available via Choose and Book or
