The Investigator plans to establish a virtual platform for home dialysis physician mentoring with the intent to:
Home-based kidney replacement therapy offers enhanced quality of life and clinical advantages compared to conventional in-center hemodialysis. Globally, there is an increased awareness of home dialysis. However, there is a lack of mentoring centers to support new programs and/or nephrologists to initiate and grow home dialysis.1, 2 Critical prerequisites for a successful mentoring relationship include:
The Investigator plans to establish a virtual platform with the intent to:
The Investigator hypothesizes that an effective, sustained mentorship program will increase knowledge and awareness of home dialysis and will ultimately enhance overall home dialysis adoption.
