KIDNEY COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE COALITION

Develop a means that professional dialysis staff, to include Nurses,
Technicians, Social Workers and Dietitians, can be made available
and deployed to assist patients during a disaster.
Accomplishments:
Established
a emergency volunteer database. Provided a link on the ANNA web
site for professionals to sign up to volunteer during disasters.
Reviewed and posted an educational handout titled “Packing
