HRMC’s renal dialysis is available with convenient hours and caring staff that treat you like family. Our staff has the training and experience to provide individualized monitoring and treatment to ensure a better quality of life. As more people in our region need dialysis, this life-preserving treatment is available right here in Huron.
Dialysis treatments generally occur three times a week for about 3-4 hours per session. HRMC’s dialysis unit is open Monday-Wednesday-Friday and located at 142 3rd Street SE. Each station is equipped with comfortable chairs and personal televisions to help patients pass the time more quickly.
HRMC also welcomes visiting dialysis patients. Visitors should have their home dialysis unit contact HRMC, preferably one month prior to visit.
In addition, HRMC’s dietitian is available to provide you and your primary caregiver information and tips to help optimize quality of life with medications, exercise, diet and fluid intake. Social services can also provide information on financial and emotional programs and will connect you to other community resources.

About HRMC’s Dialysis Expansion
A $2.45 million expansion project to relocate and renovate the dialysis unit in Huron was completed in 2023, resulting in the Christen & Hohm Dialysis Center.
HRMC has provided dialysis services to our community and the surrounding area since 1980. In 2022 alone, more than 14 patients were on a waiting list for dialysis because the unit had reached its capacity. The HRMC board of directors responded to shortages in space paired with an aging water system with a determination to expand the unit to meet the need.
The new unit houses 12 chairs, expanding the maximum treatments per week from 21 to 36, offers an easy-to-access entrance, a new water system with automatic backup and updated, comfortable treatment areas.
