Dialysis is not one trip. It is three mornings a week, for years, and it starts early.
TSMO runs standing dialysis schedules across Ottawa and Gatineau, from 6 a.m., seven days a week.
Is it the same driver every time?
That is what a recurring schedule is for. A driver who already knows the building, the chair, the elevator and the person makes a 6 a.m. pickup a lot shorter.
A standing route is run by the same small team, so the person is met by a familiar face rather than a new one every week.
What about after the treatment?
People come off dialysis tired, sometimes dizzy, sometimes cold. The return is planned as part of the same booking, with accompaniment back inside the home rather than to the door.
Does TSMO serve the Ottawa dialysis centres?
Yes, both sides of the river. TSMO meets the regulations of Ontario’s transportation boards and picks up from Ontario hospitals, private residences and nursing homes.
Can a standing schedule be set up?
Yes. Recurring bookings are set once and run on the same days and times, which removes a phone call from every week of the year.
