Her Excellency Dr. Pearlette Louisy officially opened our dialysis unit in Tapion hospital, Castries, St. Lucia in January 1999. Formerly known as Island Dialysis, St. Lucia Dialysis is owned and operated by our Medical Director Dr. Martin Didier and Nursing Manager Catherine Lane, RN. We offer the complete range of treatment options and support services necessary to provide the highest level of care possible for people living with chronic kidney disease.
Dr. Martin Didier our Medical Director is proud to ensure our high quality care meets and exceeds national guidelines. St. Lucia Dialysis surpasses national averages on measures of adequate dialysis and patient well being. High quality care ensures patients feel their best and are able to do the things they enjoy. Not all dialysis care is the same! One commonly heard concern is that of a patients concern of the quality of care he/she will retain at our unit. It should be noted that our staff have been recruited from Canada, our equipment and facilities are state of the art. In fact upon completion of a visitors one or two week vacation it is quite common for us to be told that our treatments exceed those the patient is used too.
Catherine Lane, Registered nurse originally from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada is glad she chose to work in dialysis and likes, "knowing that I am able to help make someone feel better and help them to live longer." In addition to managing the unit Cathy is also active in patient care as she personally attends to visiting patients.
"We are becoming the greatest dialysis company the Caribbean has ever seen through our commitment to upholding our Mission and Values every day, in everything we do. We are trusted because we are trustworthy. Our personal, team, and organizational values are aligned with EVERYTHING we say, and EVERYTHING we do. Most importantly our success can be attributed to the fact we like what we do."
