Thank you HOSPICARE renal for your love and care to all your patients you are a awesome team, I will recommend you to all. Delmaine and Thabani and all staff you are fantastic.

Dialysis is a medical treatment that helps remove waste products and excess fluids from your blood when your kidneys are no longer functioning properly. You need dialysis because your kidneys are unable to adequately perform this essential function.
The frequency of dialysis sessions can vary but is typically three times a week for haemodialysis and daily for peritoneal dialysis. Your healthcare team will determine the most appropriate schedule for you.
While dialysis can be a lifesaving treatment, it may have side effects such as low blood pressure, fatigue, muscle cramps, and itching. Complications like infections and access site issues can also occur,but your healthcare team will monitor and address these as needed.
Yes, many dialysis patients continue to work and travel. It may require some planning and coordination with your treatment schedule, but it is possible. Discuss your plans with your healthcare team to ensure a smooth transition.
Kidney transplantation is a potential option for many dialysis patients. Your healthcare team will assess your eligibility and guide you through the transplant evaluation and waiting process.
There are two main types of dialysis: haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. The choice between them depends on your medical condition, lifestyle, and your doctor's recommendation. They will discuss the most suitable option for you.
In haemodialysis, blood is filtered through a machine for about 3-4 hours. In peritoneal dialysis, a special fluid is introduced into your abdomen and later drained, usually in multiple exchanges throughout the day and night. Your medical team will explain the process in detail.
You'll likely need to make dietary adjustments, control your fluid intake, and manage your medications. You may also need to adjust your daily routine to accommodate dialysis sessions and doctor's appointments.
Many resources, including support groups, educational materials, and financial assistance programs, are available for dialysis patients. Your healthcare team can provide information and connect you with these resources.
Maintaining good overall health includes following your treatment plan, eating a kidney friendly diet, staying active within your limitations, and managing other health conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure.
It's important for new dialysis patients to have open and regular communication with their healthcare team to address any questions or concerns they may have as they adapt to this significant life change.
Emergency response and escalation are supported through ER24 as part of our patient safety framework.
