New Renality opens full service dialysis clinic in LaGrange

New Renality, a new dialysis clinic in LaGrange, held a ribbon cutting on Thursday afternoon. At New Renality, Patients can come to the center or be treated at home  “We prefer patients to stay at home,” Chief Communications Officer Pamela Anderson said. “At all of our facilities, that is a highlight of our offerings.”  However, not all patients want to be treated at home. “Some like coming to an in-center treatment because they like the community of it, so we make sure we’re a full-service provider,” Anderson said. For those who do want home care, teleconferencing is an option. 
“Because we’re brand new, we’re fortunate to have all the up-to-date equipment. 

We can monitor patients in their homes, and if we see something that is not right, we can call them,” Anderson said. The facility uses tele-medicine, which allows patients and medical staff to talk through minor issues, which saves money. “One of the main costs is a patient going to the emergency room when they have a question, or are concerned about something,” Anderson said. 
“Tele-medicine lets them feel like they are part of the community, yet still be in their home.”--> READ MORE
