Travelling on dialysis
Travelling can be challenging for anyone. But for people on dialysis, there are additional considerations that need to be taken into account. The process of finding a dialysis centre, scheduling appointments and transporting equipment and supplies can be daunting, especially when travelling to an unfamiliar destination.
One of the biggest challenges is finding a dialysis centre that can accommodate your needs. Not all centres offer holiday dialysis, and even those that do may not be able to provide the level of care that you are accustomed to receiving at your regular facility.
Another challenge is scheduling appointments that fit in with travel plans. Dialysis appointments typically require you to be present for several hours, several times a week. When travelling, it can be difficult to find appointments that fit in with your itinerary, especially if the destination is in a different time zone.
Transportation is another important consideration. While flying can be a convenient way to travel long distances, it can also be stressful for individuals on dialysis who need to transport equipment and supplies. Similarly, driving long distances can be challenging, especially if you need to make frequent stops to rest and manage your treatment.
Cruises can be an attractive option for people on dialysis, as many cruise lines now offer onboard dialysis facilities. However, cruises can be expensive, and you will need to plan your travel carefully to ensure that you have enough time for treatment and rest.
