More than 660,000 Americans are currently being treated for renal disease. If you’re looking for hemodialysis in Deerfield Beach, the medical specialists at First Class Kidney Care provide the care you need.
Reasons for Dialysis and Frequency
When kidney function drops below 10-15%, patients likely need hemodialysis at a dialysis clinic like First Class Kidney Care to remove toxins and fluids from the blood. Most patients require three to five treatments a week.
Time Commitment for Hemodialysis in Deerfield Beach
Your hemodialysis treatment will typically last about 4 hours. Sound like a lot of time?

Recovery Time
Dialysis treatment helps patients live more active lives. However, after treatment some patients need some recovery time. Allow yourself time to rest if needed, and be sure to follow your prescribed dietary and fluid restrictions. Taking good care of yourself before, during, and between treatments will help you feel better.
