Acute Dialysis Management
We partner with hospitals to provide custom-tailored acute dialysis services for their patients, delivering a higher level of care with personalized and local support at a reduced cost than the large providers. Our experienced nurses and efficient management have never missed a treatment and have successfully navigated numerous surveys from Joint Commission and state and federal regulators, always with stellar results. Because of our personal management style and efficient operations, we have customers, nurses and technicians that are more satisfied and ultimately provide better care, promoting healthier patients.
