Keeping Kidney Patients Safe
Keeping Kidney Patients Safe Web site is a joint project of the Renal Physicians Association and the Forum of End Stage Renal Disease Networks.
This Web site aims to provide information and best practices to prevent the occurrence of the Five Adverse Patient Safety Events identified through patient and professional surveys that form the core of the site.
Keeping Kidney Patients Safe also assists nephrology professionals in meeting the quality assessment and performance improvement (QAPI) portion of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Conditions for Coverage for End Stage Renal Disease Facilities.
Links to other patient safety resources, a patient safety improvement program toolkit and articles spotlighting various safety improvement programs and other resources are also offered to nephrology professionals
