Know your Options about Dialysis at Home
Consider Peritoneal Dialysis (PD)
Finding out you have chronic kidney disease (CKD) can be overwhelming, and it's normal to have questions:
- What treatments can I get, and will they work for me?
- How will this affect my family and friends?
- Can I still do the things I love?
You are not alone!
Let’s hear stories from people who are feeling empowered in their kidney care journeys.
"Peritoneal Dialysis was in my opinion, the best option for me at the time, being so young and so active. It gave me the freedom to have my days to do whatever I needed to do…."
Taiylor, former PD patient, Patient Advocate
"I was on dialysis for almost four years"
"Today, my role within the company is a training specialist. ...That's why we're here. Is to, you know, make being on PD easier for you as the patient."
Chris, former PD patient, Senior Training Specialist
