Our Approach
Ïã¸Û¼«ËÙ²Ê prioritizes quality care and patient safety in our on-site SNF dialysis services. We coordinate with local nephrologists and health systems and work across Ïã¸Û¼«Ëٲʒs hospital services, SNF and dialysis clinic settings to streamline the delivery of care across the continuum. In order to deliver the best care possible and an economically viable treatment, we seek to partner with SNFs that have a history of delivering high-quality care. Our SNF partners and clinical teams are supported operationally and clinically on local and national levels.
Our Model
We typically use a den model—hemodialysis is delivered by our dedicated care team at approximately six stations in a common room of the SNF—that may offer significant benefits, as described below.
Experienced caregivers
All on-site SNF dialysis services are provided by highly trained Ïã¸Û¼«ËÙ²Ê nurses and technicians with local, experienced, medical director oversight.
Familiar therapy
Patients receive the same high-quality therapy as they received in outpatient centers—three treatments per week on conventional dialysis machines —at their place of residence.
Dedicated team
Ïã¸Û¼«ËÙ²Ê's SNF Dialysis team includes focused clinical staff and leadership with local discharge planning and admission resources and support by a national team.
