JERSEY, CHANNEL ISLANDS MAY 2000
by Muriel Saul
At the beginning of May, I spent a week on the island of Jersey.
I had a very enjoyable holiday, made possible because, as a renal patient I was
able to dialyse there. The dialysis centre is situated
on a headland at Portelet Bay and was difficult to find the first time. Once
inside the small reception area there was a lovely bowl of flowers to greet me,
in the main room they have six machines each alongside a very comfortable chair.
I was made to feel welcome by the four nurses, who turned out to be very
efficient and a jolly crowd. With fields around, where we could see horses,
the time spent dialysing passed quickly, with a snack of tea and toast half way
through. The island is very pretty with lots of sandy beaches and tourist
attractions to visit. We did hire a car, which I think is essential for getting
to dialysis and seeing the sights. I had a grand holiday and look forward to
going again.
