**The Auchie Renal Dialysis Unit is a regional referral centre for patients requiring complex haemodialysis. They have several patients who have developed dementia during their time there.**

## The Challenge

Delivering Haemodialysis to patients with dementia is particularly problematic as they are required to remain still, in one place and attached to a machine for periods of up to 4 hours. The unit is busy, high tech and there are limitations as to what activities can be done there as patients often become unwell and require emergency treatment during the sessions.
