Renal Diseases
Renal (kidney) disease occurs when the kidneys can no longer filter waste and excess fluid from the body effectively.
Types of Renal Diseases:
-
Chronic Kidney Disease
-
Acute Kidney Injury
-
Glomerulonephritis
-
Polycystic kidney disease
-
Kidney Failure
Consider hospice care when a
loved one...
-
Has a life-limiting kidney disease.
-
Chooses to stop dialysis or dialysis is no longer possible.
-
Experiences frequent hospitalizations or ER visits due to complications.
-
Shows a steady decline in health, energy, or independence.
-
Struggles with uncontrollable symptoms such as pain or fatigue.
-
Has loss of appetite, significant weight loss, or depression.
-
Experiences severely reduced urine output or persistent high potassium levels.
-
Needs assistance with daily activities and a focus on comfort rather than aggressive treatment.
Advanced kidney disease can be exhausting for patients and overwhelming for families. Hospice care provides comfort, peace of mind, and support, allowing loved ones to focus on spending meaningful time together and enhancing the patient’s quality of life.
