Chronic kidney disease (CKD) caregivers report a loss of work hours due to treatment, with some carers providing up to 35 hours of support a week and others having to leave employment. As the prevalence of advanced CKD increases, the emotional, physical and financial challenges placed on family members and friends in the caregiver role is likely to increase. Early intervention of CKD can slow progression and help the psychological, physical and economic wellbeing of caregivers. Find out what happens when you make the change for CKD caregivers: https://learn.az/6040bCR6e #ForKidneyHealth
