What's the verb of dialysis?

What is the correct way to type the verb of dialysis?  I have a Dr saying "she __ on Monday, Wednesday and Friday."  He is talking about dialysis, so would it be "She dialysis on Monday, Wednesday and Friday"?  That doesn't make sense to me, but that is what he's saying!

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.

I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN.  Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading.  Hope that helps! 
Type II diabetes vs. Type 2....sm
