Registered Nurse / Specialty Care

What We Offer:

Peritoneal Dialysis

At home, registered nurses perform peritoneal dialysis exchanges multiple times throughout the day, typically following a prescribed schedule. Each exchange involves draining used dialysate from the abdomen and replacing it with fresh solution, which remains in the abdomen for a specified dwell time to facilitate the removal of waste and toxins.
Home-based peritoneal dialysis requires proper training and education to ensure patients understand the procedure, maintain sterility, and monitor for complications such as infection or fluid imbalances. Our nurses will regularly follow-up with the patients’ healthcare provider to assess the dialysis treatment, and if needed adjust treatment parameters.
Overall, in-home peritoneal dialysis offers patients the convenience of performing dialysis on their own schedule, without the need for frequent visits to a dialysis center, thereby improving their quality of life and treatment adherence.

Medical Preparation

Medication preparation by a registered nurse involves careful review of prescriptions, dosages, and patient allergies. The nurse gathers necessary medications, verifies expiration dates, and prepares them according to protocol. This may include measuring liquid medications, counting pills, or preparing injections. Additionally, the nurse labels medications accurately and documents the preparation process thoroughly in the patient’s medical records. Overall, medication preparation by a registered nurse is a critical step in delivering safe and effective care to patients

Wound Care

At home, registered nurses perform wound care after your needs and up to multiple times throughout the day, typically following a prescribed schedule.
Home-based wound care requires proper training and education to ensure patient safety. Our nurses are trained and educated in wound care and have several years of experience of skilled nursing. Our nurses will regularly follow-up with the patient’s healthcare provider to assess the wound care treatment.
