Taking Charge of Your Dialysis & Your Life!

While the dialysis patient population continues to increase, the staff continues to decrease. Be ready for that time, by taking charge of your dialysis care and your life.

Susan Hansen RN, CNN, Director of Clinical Business Development at Renal Solutions, Inc., chats with Lori Hartwell and Stephen Furst about taking charge of your dialysis and your care. Sue’s knowledge and experience go back to 1965, during the beginning stages of maintenance / chronic dialysis.

Sue is a veteran when it comes to taking care of patients. Her journey started 42 years ago when chronic dialysis was in its infancy stages. She gives valuable insight and tips on how to take charge and become more independent in your dialysis and your life.

“If there’s not a solution today, there will probably be one tomorrow if you’re a kidney patient. There’s always hope,” says Lori Hartwell.
