DaVita Inc. (NYSE: DVA), a leading provider of kidney care
services that is committed to improving the quality of life for
those diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD), today announced
the top 10 holiday destinations for dialysis-friendly travel.
Just a few decades ago, traveling while on dialysis would have
been difficult, if not impossible, for most patients. But with
nearly 1,800 dialysis facilities across the country, today DaVita®
easily arranges dialysis travel for many patients who travel to
visit family or escape the cold during the holidays.
“Today’s dialysis patients live longer and live better. Our team
of travel support specialists at DaVita makes vacationing during
the holidays worry-free for patients across the country,” said
MaryCatherine Graves, director of Guest Services at DaVita.
The following list was compiled based on previous years’
placement requests from DaVita’s Guest Services team:
- Las Vegas
- Orlando/Celebration, Fla.
- Houston
- San Antonio
- New Orleans
- Atlanta
- San Diego
- Los Angeles
- Charlotte, N.C.
- Phoenix/Scottsdale
DaVita’s Guest Services team provides travel support to
facilities in the U.S. at no cost to dialysis patients, both DaVita
and non-DaVita patients.
