World Kidney Day
Date: March 11, 2021
Kidney Health for Everyone Everywhere – Living Well with Kidney Disease
The World Kidney Day has declared 2021 the year of “Living Well with Kidney Disease”. This has been done in order to both increase education and awareness about effective symptom management and patient empowerment, with the ultimate goal of encouraging life participation. Whilst effective measures to prevent kidney disease and its progression are important, patients with kidney disease – including those who depend on dialysis and transplantation – and their care givers should also feel supported, especially during pandemics and other challenging periods, by the concerted efforts of kidney professionals.
In support of this, Sidra Medicine are hosting a symposium on Thursday 11th March 2021 to increase education and awareness of the work that is done by our kidney professionals here at Sidra to support our children and families living with Chronic Kidney Disease.
