Help, I Need Dialysis! How to have a good future with kidney disease
For the patient or family member seeking scholarly information about dialysis options, there is no better guide than this book. The book is easy to read, visually appealing, and balanced in the information of options. With logical presentations of the chapters, patient testimonials, and helpful checklists, I found this book to be THE resource for understanding dialysis options.--Steven Guest, MDAuthor ofHandbook of Peritoneal Dialysis; Director, Medical Consulting Services, Baxter Healthcare Corporation, McGaw Park, IllinoisI received your fabulous new book, and it's wonderful. I walked it around the hospital to show to all the renal fellows I could find. I gave them each a speech about MEI and the book, and they thought I was fabulous for knowing about such cool things. I gave away my bookmarks and went back to the website to order more. I will encourage all of the staff I work with to read it. I think it will help them teach patients in a very accessible way.--Megan R. Prescott, LCSWUniversity of Colorado Hospital Chronic and Acute Dialysis UnitsThis is the most comprehensive, factual, patient-oriented book about dialysis that I have read in years. As a dialysis nurse, I find it a wonderful teaching tool that assumes the patients can understand, and explains in a non-patronizing manner. And as a dialysis helper for my husband who started home nocturnal hemodialysis in 1979, it is a remarkable resource. I think anyone connected with dialysis, professionally or as a consumer, could easily benefit from this book.Ann Gray, CHN, CCRN, RNC--Life Options websiteI received your fabulous new book, and it's wonderful.
