Haemodialysis
Haemodialysis can also be carried out at home. For many patients, home dialysis means major benefits; it brings more flexibility and independence. The dialysis schedule can be adapted to individual lifestyles and may not interfere with the patient’s work. In Home Care HD the patient must be willing and able to take full responsibility for the treatment. The assistance of a partner or assistant could sometimes be necessary. The patient requires several weeks of special training in the different procedures. A dedicated room or space is needed at home for the machines and the disposables.
