Home hemodialysis unit
Overview
Home Dialysis Services offer the patient a number of treatment options that can be self-administered at home.
The program is designed for patients who would like to maintain an independent and active lifestyle and have more control over their treatment.
Patients and their families learn how to perform dialysis using equipment provided by the hospital.
Supplies are delivered to the patients’ homes each month free of charge.
We have a specially designed home-training area, and use a range of educational materials and learning tools that facilitate individual learning styles.
This program is managed by an experienced multidisciplinary team consisting of a Nephrologist, Registered Nurses, Dietitians, Pharmacists and Social Workers.
After completing the training phase, patients and their care givers continue to receive medical support and close monitoring by a Home Dialysis Nurse.
The Home Dialysis Nurse evaluates the patient’s response to treatment, blood work and medications on an ongoing basis.
Patients visit the clinic for evaluation every two or three months, or as recommended by their Nephrologist.
