It's easy to see how members of a football team or a work group share a goal. But what does this have to do with kidney disease?

Well, kidney disease is complicated. So, you need a team of committed, knowledgeable people to help you manage it. The common goal for your team is to help you live well with kidney disease.

Depending on what kind of treatment you choose for your kidney failure, key players on your team might include:

  • You
  • Family members/support people
  • Doctor
  • Nurse
  • Social Worker
  • Dietitian
  • Dialysis Technician
