What is CKD
Chronic kidney disease, also known as chronic renal disease or CKD, is a condition characterized by a gradual loss of kidney function over time. Chronic kidney disease includes conditions that damage your kidneys and decrease their ability to keep you healthy by filtering wastes from your blood.
Working in partnership with Board Certified Nephrologists, with oversight by Dr. Richard Spector from Haddon Renal Medical Specialists, our Chronic Kidney Disease Management team clinical team is trained to provide specialized care and services to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and related diagnoses, with dialysis conveniently delivered on campus. To best accommodate the singular needs of this population, we have allocated a special wing to their care with a dedicated nurse on-hand to coordinate treatment.
Specifically, our Chronic Kidney Disease Management Program aims to:
- Reduce CKD Symptoms
- Decrease Disability
