Southampton Hospital Regional Dialysis Center Earns Second Five-Diamond Award

Southampton Hospital’s Regional Dialysis Center has been recognized for the second consecutive year for its exemplary patient safety program at its Hampton Bays Atrium site. The Five-Diamond Award is presented by IPRO’s End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Network of New York, which is dedicated to assisting dialysis and renal transplantation centers in establishing and maintaining high standards of care for ESRD patients. The ESRD Network’s interactive program is designed so that each dialysis facility completes one module at a time and submits documentation for review. The quality of each module determines the number of “diamonds” awarded, with a maximum of 5 diamonds, within the participation period. The Southampton Hospital Regional Dialysis Center is one of only 24 facilities out of 243 in the State to have currently achieved this award.
