Quality Insights Team Authors Piece for Nephrology Nursing Journal

The May-June 2021 edition of Nephrology Nursing Journal features an article written by Quality Insights' Kou Kha-Moua, BSN, RN and Amber Paulus, PhD, RN, CPHQ, CPPS.

The article, "Patient Peer-to-Peer Mentoring for Patients with Kidney Failure: Methods, Facilitators, and Lessons Learned,” addresses the gap in understanding of how peer mentoring can be utilized to support a patient’s decision-making in choosing a kidney replacement treatment modality. The piece introduces Quality Insights’ patient advocacy program (PAP), which supports patients in choosing home dialysis as a treatment option and pursuing kidney transplant through waitlisting.

Individuals can earn 1.3 nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) contact hours for completing the learning activity associated with the article.

Nephrology Nursing Journal is the official journal of the American Nephrology Nurses Association (ANNA).
