What Is the Stone Diversion Program?

The Stone Diversion Program provides hospital-level care in the community, helping patients manage certain conditions, such as kidney stones, without the need for unnecessary visits to the emergency department or hospital admissions.

 

How We Can Help

The program focuses on:

  • Safe and effective treatment of kidney stones and related conditions in a community setting
  • Monitoring of symptoms and progress to prevent complications
  • Reducing hospital admissions and relieving pressure on emergency services
  • Coordinating care with your healthcare team to ensure continuity

 

What to Expect

  • Patients will receive specialised assessment and management in the community
  • Treatments and follow-up care are provided in a comfortable, convenient setting closer to home
  • Your care will be closely monitored by our clinical team to ensure safety and effectiveness

 

After the Program

Once your condition has stabilised, you will be returned to the care of your usual GP for ongoing health management, ensuring continuity of care and long-term support.
