Servicing Equipment in a restricted access environment during the Pandemic
Heather Paradis, National Director of Biomedical Services, CharDonnay Dialysis | CDI Health
Lisa Hauf, Director, Biomedical Services, DaVita
Nick Jayne, Fresenius Medical Care NA
The pandemic has provided a number of barriers in care delivery in “traditional” settings and has challenged our clinical and technical teams. The need to provide dialysis services in non-traditional locations has arisen during times of surge. This panel of experts will discuss the barriers that need to be
conquered when providing dialysis in restricted locations.
Troubled Waters
Mike Verguldi, Senior Manager, Global Product, MarCor
Wes Byrne, Owner, Purewatercloud
Understanding unusual and potentially troublesome contaminants in your water supply is vital to the treatment methods and production of pure water. During this session, we’ll speak with a leading expert
about water contaminants, how to identify what’s in your water, its impact on dialysate quality and available solutions to ensure you comply with AAMI standards.
Water 101
