NANTUCKET–The outpatient dialysis team at Nantucket Cottage Hospital (NCH) has been given a Quality Award from the End-Stage Renal Disease Network of New England.
The award was given due to the team’s efforts in exceeding the national goal for average rate of prevalent av-fistula, set by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
NCH is one of the few community hospitals in the state that offers outpatient dialysis. It is given to both permanent residents and visitors of the island.
