One of our most important goals at Dialysis At Home is to help you, your partner, and your family learn more about kidney disease and about the choices you have for medical treatment.

Patient Education One of our most important goals at Dialysis At Home is to help you, your partner, and your family learn more about kidney disease and about the choices you have for medical treatment. It's important that you learn new ways to prevent problems and take care of yourself. With this in mind, Dialysis At Home has developed classes that will give you insight into your kidney disease and dialysis care. The information will help you understand and successfully manage your treatment. Family members and friends can also attend the classes. The Dialysis At Home team will help you schedule your treatment time so that you can attend the classes that interest you. By going to class, you can learn about your treatment, meet other people with similar problems, and learn how to take better care of yourself so that you can stay as healthy as possible. As part of patient education, handbooks and other written material will be made available to you. Class topics include: The Kidneys at Work Learn in simple terms how the kidneys work, and their importance in maintaining health. Types of Kidney Disease Learn about the different kinds of kidney disease, and your specific disease process. Treatment of Kidney Disease Learn about how your specific disease is treated, and the treatment options available to you.

Improving and Maintaining Health Work with the Dialysis At Home team to develop a plan of care that meets your particular needs. Staying Active and Employed Find out how to stay active and productive while reaching your health goals. Classes are scheduled quarterly on a rotating basis. We encourage all clients, their partners, and their families to attend.
