Pardee Now Provides Comprehensive Inpatient Care for Dialysis Patients
In partnership with Mountain Kidney and Hypertension Associates and DaVita, UNC Health. Pardee is pleased to announce the launch of its inpatient dialysis program.
This new service allows the hospital to provide hemodialysis for patients admitted for ongoing care, ensuring they receive comprehensive treatment without transferring to another facility.
Hemodialysis is essential for patients whose kidneys can no longer filter blood effectively.
The treatment involves using a machine to perform the kidney's work, removing waste and excess fluid from the blood. Typically, hemodialysis is required multiple times a week, each session lasting several hours.
Previously, patients undergoing regular hemodialysis at a clinic, such as a DaVita location, had to seek care elsewhere if they needed hospitalization for unrelated issues, like a broken bone. Now, Pardee can provide the necessary hospital care and hemodialysis treatments, ensuring our patients receive the full spectrum of care they need under one roof.
We are excited to continually expand care and enhance convenience to better meet the needs of the communities we serve!
