I am a nurse who has returned to the area of hemodialysis after a 12 year break.  I work in a 16 chair, free standing unit in the US. I worked in hemo for seven years in an outpatient unit and acutes before my hiatus and have been back about 11/2 years. I have been a nurse for 21 years and I think I will spend the rest of my career in the area of renal failure.  :bandance;

I think this site is great idea. I have told some of the evening patietns about it but not all are computer savvy. I found this site when I was looking for patient info about button hole technique. I also told some of the staff about it as I think they need to be reminded about what  our patients see, hear and think about our time together, 3 days a week. I think the store items are great too. :bandance;
