I'm at a DaVita. We got a bag (like the $1 at the grocery store) with their logo on it.
:thumbup;

Frank got a head scratcher that looks exactly like a wire whisk. He was pissed that they woke him up to give it to him so he left it there.
-
didn't get anything for christmas, but they gave us a 10 dollar Kroger gift card for Thanksgiving.
-
Our PD clinic had a rather delicious morning tea, and some games (PD related). It's good to catch up with the people you met last year and meet newbies.
-
a blue blanket with fresenius logo on it.
and the traveling techs got us a goodie bag from them, it was a pair of gloves and some candies. im going to miss them when they leave in march, they are the best techs ive ever had. they listen and they are so kind.
a few days before, the dietician gave us coookies lol
-
Davita gave us a junky bag that isn't even big enough to carry our sharps container in. We gave them tens of thousands of dollars. :)
-
I got a fanny pack (yes, I'm in the US... :rofl;) with an emergency checklist in it from Fresenius.
-
I'm on home hemo. I did get a nice card from the nurses and techs but no present.
-
Got a CHRISTmas card from NxStage, but not from Frescenious.
Jesus is Lord,

You got the best gift you can get!

My Fresenius clinic gave us a nice soft blanket with Fresenius logo on it and our Nephrologist office gave us a collapsible insulated lunch-type bag.
I do home PD.

i actually thought the fresenius blanked was the best thing in the last 6 years. just wish it didn't have their logo on it. actually the best gift that has ever happened at my center was the state coming in last month, spending 4 days going over everything with a fine tooth comb and causing big changes. changes that i've been saying were needed for a long long time! i love it! i don't feel sorry for them at all!
-
At my fresenius clinic we got the little blue fleece blanket with white reindeer on it and the fresenius logo in one corner. I like it.
-
The home program gave bags with the hospital logo and the words Home Dialysis Program. They sounded pretty proud of them. I think it's the first year they had their own bags versus the general hospital bags.
The dietitian also had a tray of homemade goodies that were NOT diet approved that she was passing out.
Did anyone give their center anything? I made up a goodie box (wrapped a dialysate box in Christmas wrapping paper) with pints of maple syrup, oranges, quick bread, and cookies for my doctor and nurses. They've been great this past year, though I need to keep pressuring them about extended treatment (stupid hospital board!).
-
I'm on Nocturnal so I have 2 staff on Sun and Tue, and 2 different staff on Thursday.
I got each of them a Christmas card with a $10 gift card to Pizza Hut. They seemed appreciative.
The best gift I ever got was a back scratchier with no logo on it. They probably got it at the dollar store but I liked it and still use it.
I don't want a dialysis logo on anything I have at home. A constant reminder of my condition.
-
I didn't think I would get a present since I am on Home Hemo but the nurse had to come to my house and she brought me a blanket with the Fresenius logo on it. We love it! I have so many throw blankets that nobody will ever get cold at my house! :clap;
-
I am at Davita and we got a big fat NOTHING this last year!

Im at Fressenius and we got a blanket with their logo and a neck pillow. The staff had dinner catered for us for Thanksgiving and Christmas anf gave us our plates as we were leaving. One tech has a sister that teaches headstart and their students made everybody an ornament.
