Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Steven Miles said a wide range of services would be available to the community.

"This means we can employ health workers to act as a single point of contact for patients having vascular procedures, to help them navigate the health system with ongoing support and monitoring," Mr Miles said.

"We're also investing in home dialysis machines to make treatment more comfortable for those who need it.

"Meanwhile, we will ensure kidney transplant coordinators are available to give the support kidney transplant patients need."

Mr Miles said regional Queenslanders and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities were especially vulnerable to chronic kidney disease.

"First Nations Queenslanders are twice as likely to have chronic kidney disease, compared to non-Indigenous people," he said.

"Meanwhile, regional Queenslanders often have geographical barriers that prevent them from accessing the services they need.

"We're prioritising the needs of these Queenslanders, by ensuring they can access world-class kidney care close to home.

"The Palaszczuk Government will always invest in regional health services, to make sure no one is left behind."

The funding is part of a $10 million statewide investment to deliver the Advancing Kidney Care 2026 Plan.
