    Dear Nurse,

    Re: Mr Dallas Walters,aged 51

    I am writing to refer to Walters who requires continued care for his ambulatory peritoneal
    dialysis from your facility.He is being discharged today.

    Mr Walters was admitted on 16 th June 2011 with the diagnosis for insertion of continuous
    ambulatory peritoneal dialysis catheter .He has been chronic renal failure from last 4 years
    along with Type 2 diabetes which is controlled by oral medications.During his hospitalisation
    the procedure was successful and the procedure was uneventful.

    Mr Walters lives with his wife,who is primary carer.He is mentally stable with mild chronic
    delusions.His wife is giving supportive care.He has been totally quit smoking and drinking
    since 4 years.His admission was prolonged because of his wife slow to learn the procedures
    for continuous peritoneal dialysis.

    In view of the above, Mr Walters needs monitoring his catheter site for infection and
    educating his wife sign of peritonitis along with the importance of renal diet .It would be
    greatly appreciated if you could visit his family.

    Please do not hesitate to contact me for further queries

    Thanking you
    Faithfully
    Charge Nurse
