For individuals who need regular dialysis treatments, leaving their hometown is not always easy. It can be a challenge to find good dialysis providers that set space aside for travelers. Mile Bluff’s Wisconsin Dells Dialysis Center welcomes vacationing dialysis patients. In fact, the center reserves treatment chairs specifically for this purpose.
Mile Bluff has been providing exceptional in-center dialysis services in Mauston since 1999. Care expanded into Wisconsin Dells in 2016. The new center has allowed the team to meet the needs of individuals who had been on a waiting list, as well as those who travel to the area.
The dialysis team is made up of highly-skilled registered nurses, certified clinical hemodialysis technicians, advance practice providers, registered dietitians, nephrologists and social workers.
One honor that came to the team recently, is that Melissa Fry was elected to serve as the Chairperson for the Council of Nephrology Social Workers. The organization works closely with the National Kidney Foundation and other groups to ensure only the best care is available nationally for patients who are undergoing dialysis treatment. Melissa humbly uses this national role to help bring the best possible care to the dialysis patients in Mauston and Wisconsin Dells.
The need for in-center dialysis doesn’t need to hold you or your loved ones back from traveling. Mile Bluff offers the services needed to help individuals enjoy their time away from home.
Wisconsin Dells Dialysis Center is located in the lower level of Delton Family Medical Center, which is across the parking lot from Wal-Mart. The center provides care on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. If you have family members or friends who are traveling to the area and need dialysis treatment, call 608-847-2870 for availability.
