I recently attended a peritoneal dialysis class in our hospital. The instructor told us that PD pts. should be in a private room for risk of infection - generally they are admitted with infection, anyway; or can be roomed in with another pt with same diagnosis and getting PD. We normally admit pts on CAPD; if there's a private room available, it gets assigned to the pt. If there's none, pt goes to a 2-bed room; room is not blocked and ended up with a roommate. I need some clarification. Are they supposed to be in single room? Thank you.
