Pediatric Care

Pediatric Dialysis Specialization

This facility provides specialized dialysis care for children and adolescents

Why Children Need Specialized Dialysis Care:

• Growing bodies need more: Children require more effective dialysis than adults to support their growth

• Special nutrition needs: Kids need extra support to eat enough protein and nutrients

• Child-friendly approach: Nurses and doctors trained to work with children and support families

Excellent

This measures how well the dialysis machine cleans waste and toxins from your child's blood during in-center treatments. Children need their blood cleaned more thoroughly than adults to support healthy growth. A good score means the dialysis sessions are long enough and effective enough to keep your child healthy.

Why This Matters:

Your child needs their blood cleaned more thoroughly than adults to support healthy growth and development.

Excellent

This measures whether children on dialysis are eating enough protein to grow properly. Kids with kidney disease often don't feel like eating, but protein is crucial for building muscles, bones, and brain development. The dialysis team works with families to make sure children get the nutrition they need through special diets, supplements, or feeding support.

Patient Survey Rating

No patient survey data available

CMS 5-Star Quality Rating

CMS 5-Star Rating Not Available

Not enough quality measure data to calculate a star rating. This typically applies to newer facilities or those with limited reporting history.

This measures how often patients need blood transfusions. Dialysis centers with good anemia care (helping patients maintain healthy iron levels and red blood cell counts) have fewer patients needing transfusions. Fewer transfusions mean better care.

No Data

Avoiding Transfusions

Lower transfusion rates

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This measures how many patients have a fistula (a connection between an artery and vein in the arm) for their dialysis access. Fistulas are the best type of access because they last longer, have fewer infections, and work better than other types like catheters. Higher percentages are better.

No Data

Fistula Access

Arteriovenous fistula rate

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This measures how well patients maintain healthy phosphorus levels in their blood. When phosphorus gets too high or too low, it can cause serious bone problems and heart disease. Good dialysis centers help patients keep their phosphorus in the healthy range (3.5-4.5 mg/dL) through diet education and proper treatment.

No Data

Phosphorus Control

Optimal phosphorus levels

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This measures how often patients end up in the hospital. Good dialysis centers work to keep patients healthy and out of the hospital by providing quality treatment, monitoring for problems early, and coordinating with other doctors. Fewer hospitalizations usually mean better care.

Better

Preventing Hospitalizations

Lower hospitalization rates

143.0 per 100 pt-years

National Avg: 144.7 per 100 pt-years

This measures patient survival rates. Dialysis centers with better care, equipment, and staff training typically have lower death rates among their patients. This is one of the most important measures of overall care quality.

No Data

Preventing Deaths

Lower mortality rates

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This measures how often patients get serious bloodstream infections. These infections can be life-threatening and often happen through the access point where patients connect to the dialysis machine. Centers with better infection control practices have lower infection rates. A score below 1.0 means fewer infections than expected.

No Data

Preventing Infections

Lower infection rates

Data Not Available

Data not reported. The facility did not provide sufficient data for this reporting period.

This measures how effectively dialysis cleans toxins and waste from patients' blood. Kt/V is a calculation that shows if patients are getting enough dialysis time and treatment. A score of 1.2 or higher means the patient is getting adequate dialysis. Higher percentages mean more patients are getting proper treatment.

No Data

Dialysis Adequacy

Kt/V ≥ 1.2 achieved

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This measures how well dialysis centers help eligible patients get on the kidney transplant waiting list. A kidney transplant is usually the best long-term treatment for kidney failure. Good centers educate patients about transplants and help them through the evaluation process. Higher scores mean more patients are getting this important opportunity.

This measures how often patients visit the emergency room. Good dialysis centers help patients stay healthy and avoid emergency situations through proper treatment, patient education, and monitoring. Lower numbers mean fewer emergency visits, which is better for patients.

No Data

Emergency Department Visits

Standardized ED Visit Ratio

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This tracks how often patients end up back in the emergency room within 30 days of leaving the hospital. Good dialysis centers coordinate with hospitals and provide proper follow-up care to prevent patients from getting sick again right after discharge. Lower numbers are better.

No Data

ED Visits Within 30 Days

Post-Discharge ED Visit Ratio

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This shows what percentage of healthcare workers at the dialysis center got their COVID-19 vaccination. Dialysis patients are at high risk for serious illness from COVID-19, so it's important that the staff caring for them are vaccinated to help protect patients.

Target: ≥ 95%

This measures how often patients switch between different types of dialysis (like from hemodialysis to peritoneal dialysis, or vice versa). Good centers help patients choose the right type of dialysis for their lifestyle and medical needs, and avoid unnecessary switches that might be disruptive to care.

No Data

Dialysis Modality

Modality Switch Ratio

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.
