Home dialysis training

Shared haemodialysis care, visible training bays, up-skilled staff

If you are in an environment where everyone has control more or less of their own treatment, the inspiration is there for you to take more control. If you come into an environment where everyone is lying back and having the treatment ‘done’ to them, you’re influenced to do the same. This was really important and I was really pleased to be on that shared care bay.

Example change ideas to get you thinking (from previous DAYLife participants)

  • Staff to attend ‘train the trainer’ programmes to increase home haemodialysis training capacity (Derby)
  • Initiating home haemodialysis training at our satellite units (Wolverhampton)

  • Increase shared-care across all haemodialysis sites (Nottingham)

  • Up-skill our assisted PD team to carry out peritoneal dialysis training at home (Birmingham)
