Chronic Kidney Disease care at home in Essex County
Kidney disease is usually silent until it is not, and the most common harm comes from medications that were fine for the kidneys of ten years ago.
Managing chronic kidney disease without the trips to an office
Essex County is a short drive east for us, and we cover it from the Oranges and Montclair through to Livingston, Millburn and the Caldwells.
A clinician comes to your home anywhere in Essex County with a portable exam kit and your chart already open. Visits run 45 to 60 minutes, which is the time it takes to examine you properly, review every medication in the house and write a plan your family can follow. Whether you are looking for a house call doctor, a visiting physician or in-home medical care for a senior parent in Essex County, this is that service.
Monitoring without the trips
Blood and urine testing at home, tracked over time, with results explained by phone. We watch the trend rather than reacting to a single number.
Medications and doses
A great many common drugs need a lower dose, or need stopping, as kidney function declines. Over the counter anti-inflammatories are a frequent and avoidable cause of harm. We review everything in the house against your current function.
After a hospital stay in Essex
If you have recently been discharged from Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston or Mountainside Medical Center in Montclair, we can usually visit within two to three days to reconcile the discharge medication list against what is actually in the house. We are independent and not affiliated with any hospital system.
Towns we cover in Essex County
Belleville, Bloomfield, Caldwell, Cedar Grove, Essex Fells, Fairfield, Glen Ridge, Livingston, Maplewood, Millburn and Short Hills, Montclair, Nutley and every other town in the county.
