How to start dialysis at home in Houston, step by step
Here is the whole path, from the day you reach out to the day a nurse does your first treatment in your home.
-
You call us
This is a real conversation, not a sales call. Ask anything. There is no obligation.
-
We verify your insurance
We contact your plan and confirm your benefits. Then we explain plainly what is covered, before anything starts. You can read more on our insurance and coverage page.
-
We coordinate with your kidney doctor
After you contact us, we ask your kidney doctor (nephrologist) for the medical orders and the records the treatment needs. You do not have to arrange any of this yourself.
-
We prepare your home
After you are admitted to our service, our staff visits your home and checks the space, water, and power the machine needs. Then we deliver the machine and supplies, which stay in your home between treatments.
-
We build your schedule
Your treatment days and times are set around the plan your kidney doctor orders, so you know exactly when to expect us.
-
Your first treatment
A licensed, background-checked dialysis nurse arrives at your home, sets up the machine, and places the needles for you. The nurse runs the treatment, stays the entire time, and leaves your home tidy.
What continues after that
Your treatments settle into the same rhythm each week. We restock your supplies. After each visit, the nurse records the treatment, and those notes are shared with your care team. At every step, we tell you what comes next.
An honest note about timing
Most patients begin treatment at home four to five days after we confirm their insurance. We tell you where things stand at each step, so you are not left guessing.
