Does any home care agency help with PD Dialysis?

I take care of my parents, my dad has kidney disease is on Home PD Dialysis and my mom has dementia. I have been searching for in home care to help me but I am not finding an agency to help with PD Dialysis. I know I had to go through special training to do the home dialysis. Some hospital or nursing homes are not trained to provide service for PD Dialysis. Any ideas would be helpful. Thank you.

In my area, home health agencies will handle dialysis, ventilators, tracheotomies and other situations that many assisted living or nursing homes will not handle. Having said that, be aware that such care requires a nurse and not health aides so the price will be much higher than average. I would advise to check your local agencies as it sounds that you have been doing. Good luck.
