You can help create our next team of inspired volunteers assisting patients by becoming a volunteer leader. At Satellite, we're making life better for those living with kidney disease.

When patients don’t have the support of welcoming volunteers and staff or don’t feel at home in our clinics, they can end their treatments early or miss them altogether, resulting in inadequate dialysis, more pain, and worse health outcomes.

There’s another option! We believe every patient, regardless of their diagnosis, has a right to live a better life. Dialysis patients who feel well can travel, exercise, and even volunteer. All it takes is caring volunteers lead by leaders like you to help create a welcoming clinical environment.

Maybe you or a family member have struggled with a diagnosis in the past and someone helped you. Maybe you have a passion for equitable access to. Maybe you want to launch your career, and you’re looking to build your clinical skills and make your resume more competitive.

Whatever your motivations, it’s easy to make an impact in healthcare. Become a leader with Satellite today and ensure kidney patients in your community get better care.

Clinical volunteers must be 18 or older and complete a background check and drug test. Satellite pays for both!

Mission Statement

Our Mission: Making life better for those living with kidney disease. Our Values: Compassion, Trust, Quality, Teamwork, and Innovation.

Description

Satellite: A simple idea that changed the way people received treatment.

In the 1960s and early 1970s, people living on dialysis often traveled great distances, three times a week, to a regional medical center for their life-sustaining treatments.

Dr. Norm Coplon, Satellite Healthcare’s founder, believed it was possible to offer individualized dialysis care in a friendlier, more comfortable environment, closer to where people lived.

With just six patients, the first Satellite dialysis center opened March 1 st, 1974. The little center, tucked away in a quiet San José, California neighborhood, was the start of a collaborative, energetic spirit that spurred a series of innovations and opportunities.

Today, Satellite Healthcare has more than 2,800 employees caring for about 8,300 patients. Our 80+ centers are located in five states - California, Texas, Tennessee, New Jersey, and Hawaii.

As we celebrate our past, we look to what the future holds and to the many more lives we’ll be able to touch with high-quality, individualized kidney care.
