We invite you to attend our upcoming webinar on sustainable kidney care practices, hosted by Shazia Adalat and Gloria Munoz-Figueroa.
Practicing Sustainable Kidney Care | UK Kidney Association
This session will provide the nephrology community with updates on current initiatives and developments driving sustainability across kidney care services.
Why join?
Kidney care has one of the largest environmental footprints in healthcare, with dialysis treatment generating the most significant carbon emissions. As the climate crisis intensifies, our specialty has both a responsibility and an opportunity to lead meaningful change while maintaining excellent patient outcomes.
Our expert speakers will share comprehensive insights from sustainable kidney care projects across the UK, highlighting innovative approaches from multi professional healthcare teams, as well as national and international initiatives.
The webinar aim is to equip you with practical knowledge and actionable strategies for implementing sustainable practices in your own clinical setting.
