Uncomplicated patients are discharged day 10-14.

Prograf / Ciclosporin / MMF shared care protocol must be included with the immediate discharge letter (www.ljf.scot.nhs.uk). Formal discharge summary is dictated on the day of discharge. Copies should be faxed to parent units as soon as they are available and telephone contact made with the receiving physician to arrange quick follow-up.

 

Transfer to Referring Renal Unit

When patients are transferred to their local referring renal unit prior to discharge home the centre must be contacted before and on day of discharge.  A copy of the patient transfer details sheet (medical and nursing) (Appendix V) with a computer printout of the biochemistry, haematology, Tacrolimus results and discharge letter should accompany patient on transfer and/or faxed to receiving unit.
