In their poster, “Thriving on PD,” presented at the Annual Dialysis Conference, Mary Jo Miller-Grandfield, RN, BSN, and her dialysis team at Renal Venture Management’s Fort Dodge/Storm Lake, Iowa clinic, set out to spread the word about the value of home dialysis in their mainly rural community.
A grand opening for the clinic will be held Wednesday, April 9, 2014, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at 300 Grand Avenue, Suite 101, in Englewood. Staff will be giving tours of the clinic and of Bergen Kidney Center’s new offices, located next door. Bergen Kidney Center is a nephrology practice that specializes in treating a range of kidney related diseases and manages end-stage renal patients on dialysis. Staff from both centers, patients, and local elected officials will be on-hand for the grand opening.
