The service includes in-patients on the paediatric renal ward, neonatal, critical care and haemodialysis unit, and out-patient chronic kidney disease, peritoneal dialysis and transplant clinics, requiring expertise working with paediatric nutritional support, parenteral nutrition, and acute and chronic patients and their families. The postholder will work closely with other paediatric renal dietitians, the renal dietetic technician, and the wider renal MDT.
