Home Dialysis Services in Florida

The Growing Impact of Kidney Disease in Florida

Florida has one of the highest burdens of kidney failure in the United States, with over 35,981 residents on dialysis and 51,762 living with kidney failure as of 2025. Each year, approximately 8,788 new cases are diagnosed, largely driven by diabetes, hypertension, and an aging population. The state’s dialysis market is extensive, with over 90% of treatments delivered in-center, highlighting a growing need for flexible home dialysis options that enhance quality of life.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) disrupt kidney function, preventing the body from effectively filtering waste products and controlling fluid balance. Dialysis treatment replaces these vital kidney functions, removing excess fluid and toxins, maintaining health, and supporting long-term renal care.

Dialyze Direct addresses these challenges by offering comprehensive home dialysis care in Florida, bringing treatment directly to patients’ homes. Our programs are designed to support seniors and those with mobility limitations, providing professional oversight, staff-assisted home dialysis, and personalized treatment plans. This approach allows patients to receive effective dialysis in the comfort of their own home, improving convenience, independence, and overall quality of life.

How Kidney Disease Affects Daily Life

Living with chronic kidney disease and dialysis treatment impacts more than just lab results.

Biological Impact: 

Patients with kidney disease often experience fatigue, fluid overload, hypertension, and complications from dialysis catheters, fistulas, or grafts. Frequent hemodialysis treatments and the stress of in-center dialysis can affect residual kidney function and overall energy levels.

Emotional Impact: 

The dialysis experience can be overwhelming, causing anxiety, depression, and stress due to rigid dialysis schedules and travel to dialysis clinics. Home dialysis in a supportive home environment can improve emotional wellbeing and restore a sense of independence.

Social & Financial Impact: 

Traveling for in-center dialysis three times a week disrupts work, family time, and personal life. Dialysis care is expensive; Medicare home dialysis, insurance coverage, and financial planning support are crucial to reduce stress and provide peace of mind. Families and care partners often face burnout without structured support, which Dialyze Direct addresses through education and professional assistance.

Home Dialysis : A Better Path Forward for Your Kidney Care

Home dialysis Florida programs are transforming renal replacement therapy by bringing dialysis at home. Patients who transition to home hemodialysis enjoy:

Better blood pressure and kidney function control
Enhanced energy and overall health
Flexible dialysis schedules with short daily hemodialysis or nocturnal hemodialysis
Reduced hospitalizations and complications
Greater independence and comfort in the home environment

Unlike traditional in-center treatments, home dialysis offers personalized care and convenience while maintaining standards of care and professional oversight.

Comprehensive Home Dialysis Care We Offer

Patients perform dialysis at home using state-of-the-art dialysis equipment, including portable home dialysis machines. Short daily hemodialysis or frequent hemodialysis treatments help maintain residual kidney function, improve fluid and toxin removal, reduce strain on the heart, and provide more consistent energy levels throughout the day. Home hemodialysis also allows greater flexibility, letting patients schedule treatments around work, family, and daily activities while maintaining independence and comfort in their own home environment.

Assisted & Staff-Supported Home Dialysis:

For patients who cannot perform dialysis independently, staff-assisted home dialysis delivers professional, hands-on support directly in your home. Our team assists with:

  • Machine setup, monitoring, and dialysis procedures
  • Ensuring safety and treatment accuracy
  • Training care partners and family members to confidently support treatment at home

This service is especially valuable for seniors, patients with limited mobility, and families seeking extra support. Assisted home dialysis allows patients to receive high-quality care in the comfort of their home, reduce frequent trips to a dialysis clinic, and improve overall quality of life while maintaining independence.
