Dialysis Care Center

In-Center Hemodialysis

You have various options for dialysis treatment, including in-center hemodialysis.
During this treatment, you are taken care of by a personalized care team at the specialized dialysis care center for three 4-hour sessions a week. People prefer this dialysis treatment method because:

  • Trained kidney care providers monitor dialysis treatments.
  • Patients at the dialysis center can engage in social interactions with both fellow patients and staff members.
  • Dialysis is only three times a week, leaving four days of freedom in between.

After talking with a nephrologist, many individuals prefer going to a dialysis center for treatment because it aligns well with their lifestyle.

How does in-center hemodialysis work?

Once you arrive at the dialysis center, a healthcare team comprising nurses and facility administrators will handle all aspects of your treatment. A patient care technician (PCT) will initially wash your access area.

Once your access area is cleaned, your weight will be measured, and you will be escorted to your designated dialysis chair. Before connecting you to the dialysis machine, your standing and sitting blood pressure will be measured, and a dialysis nurse will assess your vital signs. The usual dialysis session takes about four hours. While you are receiving dialysis treatment, the care team closely monitors your blood pressure and the performance of the dialysis machine. After your treatment, they will disconnect you from the machine and re-record your vital signs.
