Nephrology Day Hospital

A safe and efficient option to improve your quality of life

The Nephrology Day Hospital Unit is a specialized care facility for kidney patients who require complex procedures without prolonged hospitalization, ensuring safety and close supervision by an expert medical team.

The average stay typically ranges from 1 to 3 hours. This allows the necessary procedure or treatment to be performed, with prior and post-evaluation, without the need for an overnight hospital stay.

It provides a comfortable and efficient setting for scheduled treatments and studies, reducing hospital stays, promoting early recovery, and improving the quality of life for both patients and their families.
