Rotary supplies Portable kidney failure treatment to keep patients in the remote
communities they love
By Amy Hoak
There are two main ways to reach the community of Natuashish in Labrador. Travellers can
go by plane or, in the summer months, take a boat up the coast. No reliable roads connect the
subarctic Innu community of about 1,000 residents with more populated towns to its south.
Frequent transportation delays and high prices for plane tickets also are strains on those
trying to make the journey. These issues make it challenging for people with some medical
conditions to get treatment, including life-sustaining dialysis that cleans waste and excess
fluid from the blood when a person's kidneys aren't working properly.
Supporters celebrate at the project launch to provide portable dialysis equipment that allows
patients or family caregivers to administer treatments.
