IG Live – February 28th: This month, the DPC Education Center got to speak with Elizabeth Jones, MSW, LCSW, a Clinical Social Worker for Nephrology and Transplant at Walter Reed National Medical Center. Elizabeth discusses how social workers provide support for dialysis and kidney transplant patients, with additional emphasis on supporting veterans.
Tune in to learn some of the resources a social worker can provide to their patients and ideas for how patients can utilize social workers at their facilities, even if privacy is a concern. For home dialysis patients, Elizabeth explains how social workers can arrange to do home visits and discusses some veteran specific statistics on kidney disease and resources that veterans and all patients can use to find the care that’s right for them.
