Dialysis Australia is dedicated to transforming care for people living with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), enabling patients to receive high-quality dialysis treatments from the comfort and safety of their own homes. When Dialysis Australia set out to scale its in-home dialysis service, they needed a robust, secure, and highly configurable digital platform one capable of managing the full care lifecycle from nurse scheduling and treatment planning to medical records and incident management.

Testpoint was engaged as the technology partner to design, develop, implement, and fully test the digital solution, delivering a seamless platform to support Dialysis Australia’s in-home care model.

• Digitally manage patient care plans, medical records, and incidents
• Support mobile workflows for nurses visiting patients at home
• Ensure data security, patient privacy, and regulatory compliance
• Be flexible and scalable to support a growing patient base
• Reduce hospital admissions and infection risks by keeping patients safe at home
