d.HOLIDAY is here to guide you

Planning a holiday around dialysis care involves a little extra preparation but travelling while on dialysis is possible. With a bit of planning and support from d.HOLIDAY and your home clinic, you can enjoy your break and still receive the care you need.

1. Plan early
The earlier you start, the easier everything becomes. Begin by speaking with your physician or care team at your home clinic. They will: • confirm that you are healthy and fit to travel • advise you on any vaccinations, travel precautions or extra check-ups you may need • help you understand what to consider regarding holiday insurance and medication • find information about each clinic, including facilities and treatment options • learn what to expect from dialysis at your holiday destination Planning early increases the likelihood of securing dialysis close to where you are staying, on dates and at times that fit your holiday plans.
