heal.abstract	End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is a chronic failure of normal kidney function, which is precipitated by a number of factors, such as diabetes, pyelonephritis, hypertension, and polycystic kidney disease1. The loss of kidney function is gradual, and many patients do not have any symptoms until the end stage of the disease. Killingworth and Van Den Akker2 point out that people undergoing haemodialysis have to comply with a wide range of medications and restrictions, which affect both their physiological and psychological status. The paper presents a case study of a woman with ESRD, requiring initiation of haemodialysis. An assessment of the patient’s health needs is addressed, followed by the implementation and evaluation of the nursing process. Finally, the analysis of the overall plan used in the case study is presented.	en
