Home Dialysis
The home dialysis department specializes in teaching patients the art of self-care utilizing three modes of dialysis therapy:
- Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD)
- Continuous Cycling Peritoneal Dialysis (CCPD)
- Home Hemodialysis
An interdisciplinary approach is utilized in selecting the mode of dialysis most suitable for the patient. The interdisciplinary team includes the physician, nurse, social worker, dietitian and the patient. Home dialysis offers the patient flexibility and convenience in treatment regimes. Training is usually on a one to one basis and is individualized to specific patient needs. Family members or helpers are included in training sessions as necessary
