- The chance to socialize with other patients and staff
- A personalized care team
- No supplies to store at home
In-center nocturnal dialysis
In-center nocturnal dialysis allows you to dialyze in-center overnight three times per week, for 6-8 hours while you sleep. It also includes potential benefits such as:
