Abstract:
Pre-dialysis education is known to impact modality choice among patients with end stage renal disease, but many of these patients report a lack of education in alternative dialysis therapies. Since 2004, Satellite Healthcare, a non-profit dialysis provider, has implemented chronic kidney disease education through Options classes at WellBound Centers, resulting in 23% of patients being treated with home therapies. The Satellite Healthcare-WellBound experience confirms that Options classes and a compelling infrastructure for home dialysis therapies are vital elements to bring alternative dialysis therapies to more patients.
