Key takeaways:

• Home hemodialysis (HHD) uses an access site (ideally a fistula or graft) and a dialysis machine to filter your blood.
• HHD, similar to PD, allows you to do dialysis treatments more frequently than in-center.
• When dialysis treatment is done more frequently, it may mean more energy and fewer food restrictions.
• Hands-on training helps you feel confident, safe, and supported while managing dialysis treatment and supplies at home.
• Your dialysis care team provides ongoing 24/7 support, even when you do treatment independently—so you're never alone.
• HHD gives you independence—you can still work, spend time with loved ones, and do the things that matter most to you.
