Kidney patient organisations offer education, peer support and advocacy independent of any care provider.
What to know
- International kidney foundations publish free, well-reviewed patient education material.
- Regional and UAE-based patient groups can connect you with families in similar circumstances.
- Advocacy organisations can help you understand your rights and navigate insurance disputes.
- Ask Trivita's patient experience team for current, vetted signposting.
Talk to your care team
This topic is part of Patient Rights, Advocacy & Resources, one of ten modules in the Trivita Learning Hub. If anything here contradicts what your own nephrologist or dialysis nurse has told you, follow your care team — they know your prescription, your access and your history.
Trivita's dialysis nurses answer our care line 24 hours a day on 055 242 1070, including for people who are not yet our patients.
