GLENS FALLS — With a goal of ensuring long-term, regional availability of the broadest array of healthcare services possible, Glens Falls Hospital has reached an agreement to sell its renal dialysis service to Dialysis Clinic Inc. (DCI), the nation’s leading not-for-profit dialysis provider.
DCI cares for more than 15,000 dialysis patients in over 230 centers across the country, including locations in Saratoga Springs, Clifton Park and Albany. The sale is contingent upon approval by the New York State Department of Health.
Patients are not expected to experience any changes to their treatment regimen. DCI will own and operate the Renal Dialysis Center on Broad Street in Glens Falls, and provide inpatient dialysis services at the hospital. Employees of Glens Falls Hospital’s dialysis service line have been offered employment opportunities with DCI to ensure a seamless transition and to continue providing uninterrupted, patient-centered care.
As the nation’s leading nonprofit dialysis provider, DCI will supplement its expert local care with access to extensive national-level resources, including a clinical research department and national clinical trials, advanced employee training, and kidney disease education and medication therapy management programs.
