A device and method for holding coils of medical tubing is provided to simplify packaging and organizing the various coils of medical tubing needed for a medical device. This will make it easier for the patient to manipulate each coil of tubing, particularly in a home setting involving a home dialysis machine operated by the patient. The tube holding device advantageously reduces the probability of entanglement and groups the coils of tubing individually. It also mitigates and/or eliminates the need for tape to bundle the coils. Specifically, benefits of the tube holding device according to the system described herein include: reduced cost; ease-of-use; prevention of entanglement of coils of tubing; ease of packaging and shipping; and does not require packaging tape to bundle tubing.
