| [ Summary ] | Home hemodialysis is a treatment that requires fewer health care personnel and routinely involved medical staff than outpatient dialysis. Throughout the case nurses approach patients and their families holistically; I collect information and reflect over numerous thoughts. Planning for patients and caretakers are formed based on the results of the assessment, and we implement a safe and rich home hemodialysis lifestyle. Nurses involved in home hemodialysis need to understand the characteristics of elderly people and devise guidance methods that are individually tailored to facilitate the realization of home hemodialysis. Patients and their families will become older as they continue their home hemodialysis. Then, it is necessary to consider shifting to home hemodialysis. As patients and carers become older, it is necessary to consider the continuation of home hemodialysis. It is necessary to implement appropriate care according to the subject. Because it leads to continuation of safe home hemodialysis. | |
