Hello, I'm currently working on opening a new dialysis center in Grand Prairie, Texas and was wanting to know if anyone has a new facility checklist so that I may make sure I have all my bases covered before inspection. If you could fax it to me that would be great. Thank you for your help.

Phone:817-465-8585 ask for Mike or Atten: Mike Lohman

Try contacting the Texas Department of Health. When we opened our clinic 6 years ago we contacted the Ok dept. of health they was more than willing to help us get on the right track.

Hey Mike, this is Pete. We attended the Fresenius class in Calif. a while ago. I don't have a check list but I will sure help over the phone. E-Mail @ pleeflang@stmarygj.com. By the way, in your planning, never forget that you can't have too much storage. Later. Pete

Hey Pete, Good to hear from you again. hope all is going well. Yes, I'll get in touch with you soon Thanks

Hey mike just remember that anything you get from out of state may not apply. When texas passed it's licensure law things like staffing ratio (for nurses), carbon tank configurations,etc. became more precise. If you have any exsisting facilities use their old audits as a guideline. Also (as posted earlier) contact texas dept of health get the whole audit program. If your running non reuse it will be easier. Reuse opens a whole nother area.
