Livingston County Executive Director, Nick Mazza and Noyes CEO, James Wissler. identified the need for a dialysis center to be available to residents of Livingston and surrounding counties. After years of planning, analyzing and submitting the Certificate of Need to NYS, that long-awaited vision became a reality on June 6, 2008.
Their joint leadership resulted in the Noyes Kidney Disease and Dialysis Center at Millennium Drive in Geneseo, a 12-station chronic dialysis center. Dialysis patients receive treatment three days each week. Travel time plus treatment time can take up the entire day. We have saved up to eight hours of travel time per week for some patients by having a dialysis center in Livingston County.
Financial support to start the dialysis unit came from Livingston County, Noyes Hospital, and multiple donors. Of note, the Noyes Hospital Auxiliary donated $75,000 towards the dialysis center which helped fund the purchase of dialysis machines.
Dialysis treatments can now be performed at Noyes Hospital for chronic dialysis patients who are admitted to the hospital. Also, patients with certain drug overdoses or sudden onset kidney failure may also need dialysis while hospitalized.
The need for dialysis centers will increase in coming years:
o 26 million Americans have chronic kidney disease (CKD) and millions
of others are at increased risk;
o Diabetes, hypertension and obesity are risk factors for CKD;
o Nearly half of people with an advanced form of kidney disease have no symptoms; and
o Simple tests can detect chronic kidney disease: blood pressure, urine albumin and serum creatinine.
The Noyes Kidney Disease and Dialysis center is under the direction of Dr. Asad Majid who is a nephrologist. Dialysis nursing care is under the direction of K'Mara Clare, RN, MSN, BSN. |
