About Erkelenz: Erkelenz has a long history which can still be seen in the cityscape today in the form of medieval buildings and the Gothic town hall. Today, Erkelenz attracts visitors, especially thanks to its numerous cultural events. Its proximity to Düsseldorf and Cologne also makes the city an ideal base for discovering the two metropolises.

FAQs
Most patients pass the time during dialysis in activities such as reading, writing, sleeping, knitting, listening to music, watching TV or just chatting. All our dialysis clinics have televisions, free Wi-Fi for use with a mobile device, and please ask the staff for details. Please bring headphones so that you do not disturb other patients.
It is as important for dialysis patients to take a holiday as it is for anyone else, and provided you give enough notice and are flexible enough, there is no reason why you should not be able to do this. Arrangements for you to have haemodialysis at another unit may be made within this country or abroad. Please talk to your physician or nurse at least two months before you plan to travel and before making any plans. This is so we can make sure that you are fit enough to travel as well as to give us enough time to help you arrange your holiday dialysis. COVID-19 restrictions and the Foreign Office guidance apply.
We are serving snacks and beverages during your dialysis treatment.
