[The detection of chronic kidney disease, a caregiver-user collaboration]

Abstract

For several years, the university hospital of Toulouse has been regularly collaborating with the France Rein association to organise a kidney failure screening day. A multidisciplinary team made up of student nurses, nurses, dieticians, nephrologists and volunteers from the association, work with hospital users to improve the prevention and treatment of people with kidney failure. This approach is a real public health action.
