Dialysis
Mercy Medical Center opened the first – and only – outpatient dialysis program in the area more than 20 years ago. 563 treatments were performed that year, and today, more than 27,000 treatments will be performed at the hospital's three dialysis units this year alone.
Before its opening, area patients had to travel to receive treatment. Today, each patient's care is planned by a team that includes physicians, nurse specialists, social workers, and dietitians.
Mercy provides acute and chronic hemodialysis, as well as continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. These lifesaving procedures are often intermediate steps for patients awaiting kidney transplant surgery.
