Holiday dialysis
Dialysis patients can go on holiday, just like everyone else. It takes some careful planning, but once you’re prepared you can enjoy a break with an easy mind. Whether you’re here on holiday, for your work, or on a family visit, you’re more than welcome to make use of the kidney dialysis facilities at our dialysiscentres in Utrecht and Amsterdam.
Are you looking for a dialysiscentre because you need temporary dialysis? We offer treatments at our centres in Utrecht (Gezondheidshuis), at the Amsterdam UMC, or in a dialysishub. Your treatment is given in a department that offers every convenience:
- Comfortable dialysis stations
- Free WiFi
- TV and radio
Our centres are easily accessible by car and public transport. For detailed directions, please consult our locations
Applicationform
To make a reservation, please fill in the applicationform. Our planning department will start working on your request 6-8 weeks before the requested holiday period. Earlier scheduling is not possible as your request is also linked to the schedule of our staff.
