Program
PHYSICIAN & PHARMACIST PROGRAM
This year’s presentations and workshops are designed to highlight the latest information about state-of-the-art care in nephrology, to relay key changes in screening and diagnosis affecting patient management, and to spark controversy and interactive discussions all with the common goal of improving outcomes for individuals with kidney disease. While this program is directed towards practicing nephrologists, pharmacists, and fellows, care of CKD patients is often multidisciplinary, involving care by physicians, advanced practitioners, nurses, dietitians, technicians, and social workers. Thus, many of this year’s sessions are designed to address both multidisciplinary and cross-specialty approaches and should appeal to all members of the healthcare team.
