Life with kidney disease or dialysis can feel like a daily uphill climb—but every treatment, every healthy choice, every question you ask your care team is a victory.

This month, we celebrate the courage and strength of our kidney warriors. Your resilience inspires us all to keep moving forward with hope, health, and determination.

🌟 Remember: You are not alone. Your care team, your loved ones, and your community are here with you—every step of the way.

Did you know? Before they ever care for patients, dialysis technicians go through extensive training to keep you safe during every treatment.

✔️ They learn about kidney disease and how dialysis works
✔️ They master machine setup and monitoring
✔️ They study infection control and safety
✔️ They complete a certification exam, Certified Clinical Hemodialysis Technician (CCHT)
✔️ They maintain their certification with continued education and service

Your technician’s knowledge and training are the foundation of the safe, compassionate care you receive every day.

Give your dialysis technician a word of encouragement the next time you meet for their dedication to the role.

October is Health Literacy Month! Asking questions is one of the best ways to take charge of your dialysis journey. Next time you see your care team, try asking:

✅What does my lab work mean for me?

✅What foods should I be careful with?

✅How do I know if my fluid intake is on track?

Remember: there are no “silly” questions when it comes to your health!

Did you know dialysis patients are at higher risk of serious flu complications? Because dialysis can weaken the immune system it’s especially important to protect yourself.

✅ Why get your flu shot?

-Helps prevent hospitalizations and pneumonia

-Reduces your risk of spreading flu to family and other patients

-Protects your heart, blood pressure, and overall health during dialysis

-Safe and effective for people with kidney disease (use the flu shot, not nasal spray)

Ask your care team about getting your flu vaccine this season—it’s one of the simplest ways to stay healthy and strong.

Dialysis Doesn’t Stop the Adventure: National Parks ARE Possible! 🌲

If you’ve ever dreamed of seeing the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Yosemite, or Zion, but thought dialysis would get in the way—I’m here to tell you it won’t!

With a little planning, you can absolutely explore the beauty of our National Parks while continuing your in-center treatments. Here’s how:

✅ Choose parks near towns with dialysis clinics
✅ Work with your center to schedule treatments on the road
✅ Explore on your off days or after morning sessions
✅ Take your time, rest often, and soak in the views

Some of the most dialysis-friendly parks:
-Grand Canyon – Dialysis in Flagstaff
- Yellowstone – Clinics in Cody or Bozeman
- Zion – Just 45 mins from St. George, UT
- Yosemite – Dialysis available in Fresno
- Rocky Mountain – Denver/Boulder access

The key is not letting dialysis define your limits—there’s a big, beautiful world out there waiting for you. Nature is healing, and YOU deserve the joy of adventure.

Let’s keep living boldly.

Yes, You Can Cruise While on Dialysis! Here’s How.

If you’ve ever dreamed of setting sail on a cruise but wondered how dialysis would fit in—good news: It’s possible! Whether you’re planning a full cruise with dialysis on board or a short weekend getaway, there are great options to make it work.

1. Dialysis at Sea Cruises
Some cruise lines (like Royal Caribbean or Holland America) offer dialysis onboard select sailings! They provide:
>A nephrologist & trained dialysis staff
>Treatments done while you’re enjoying the trip
>Peace of mind knowing care is with you

*Note: These cruises book up early and can be more expensive—but they’re an amazing option for longer adventures.

2. Short Cruises – No Onboard Dialysis Needed

You can also do a short Friday–Monday cruise by timing your treatments like this:
>Dialysis early Friday morning
>Cruise Friday afternoon to Monday
>Dialysis Monday evening when you return

This works great for 3–4 day sailings from places like our local Port Canaveral!

You get a relaxing break without missing a treatment—just coordinate with your center ahead of time.

Whether it’s a full week at sea or a long weekend of sunshine and ocean views, dialysis doesn’t have to hold you back from cruising! Just plan ahead, pack smart, and let the waves wash your worries away.
