01 — Know your team
Expertise works best
when it works together.
Dialysis care reaches beyond one clinician or one machine. A connected team helps patients understand the plan, feel supported during treatment, and navigate life between sessions.
A multidisciplinary model
Six disciplines.
One shared plan.
Federal dialysis standards describe an interdisciplinary approach that includes the patient, treating clinician, registered nurse, social worker, and dietitian. Technicians and coordinators add essential hands-on and practical support.
02
Dialysis nursing
Nurses supervise in-center treatment, assess patient response, communicate changes, and support patient education.
03
Patient care technicians
Technicians provide trained, hands-on support before, during, and after treatment under clinical supervision.
04
Renal nutrition
A dietitian helps translate the care plan into practical choices around food, fluids, and daily routines.
05
Social work support
Social workers can help with adjustment, family needs, transportation, insurance questions, and community resources.
06
Care coordination
The team connects appointments, referrals, records, and follow-up so important details are less likely to feel fragmented.
How the team connects
Support across the full treatment rhythm.
Before treatment
Review the prescription, check weight and vital signs, talk through symptoms or changes, and assess the vascular access.
During treatment
Monitor the session and how you are feeling, respond to concerns, and keep communication clear throughout the visit.
Between sessions
Coordinate education, nutrition, social support, referrals, and follow-up questions that affect the wider care plan.
