How to Have a Good Future with Kidney Disease
A patient-centered CKD education series in 6 parts
Background
The non-profit Medical Education Institute, Inc., developed the How to Have a Good Future with Kidney Disease toolkit and videos so any renal professional can educate patients. Ideally, we want people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to slow progression of their illness. If that is not possible, they need to choose a treatment option that will suit their preferred lifestyle—and make a safe transition to that option. To succeed, education is key. This slide series can help you educate people from stage 3 CKD through end-stage renal disease, one-on-one or in groups. The slides can be used for MIPPA purposes. No registration is needed to download and use the FREE kit or to view the videos. No outside funding supported development of this series.
These presentations cover the following topics:
- Coming to Terms
- Kidneys and Kidney Disease
- Slowing Kidney Disease
- Kidney Transplant
- Dialysis and Your Lifestyle
- Your Money and Your Life
