Information Sessions
CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE INFORMATION SESSIONS
Living Well with Kidney Disease information sessions designed for people with renal disease and their family and friends are held at Canberra Hospital every month. You will learn about your kidneys, treatment choices and things that will have an impact on your lifestyle. You can talk to people who have had similar experiences and hear about the adjustments they have made in regard to work, life and leisure. The atmosphere will be relaxed and you can ask questions and join in the discussion, if you feel comfortable. Patients and families will have the opportunity to understand what is happening to your kidneys and gain knowledge to help you make important decisions that are right for you.
The program will cover:
- What your kidneys do,
- Understanding your blood results,
- Treatment choices available,
- How to improve your kidney function through positive lifestyle changes, and
- Insights from people having dialysis, living well in the community.
