Abstract

The need for a workforce able to address the health care needs of older adults has been well established. Individuals with kidney disease experience an extensive number of transitions of care across health care settings related to the kidney disease process and the number of health care providers involved in their care. Kidney disease is multifactorial, and the prevention of progression of disease and poor outcomes are key to improving the health of individuals with kidney disease. Nurses and nurse practitioners can improve the outcomes for individuals with complex comorbid conditions and kidney disease especially during the transitions of care.
