A patient support group can provide and exchange information ranging from kidney disease research and new treatment options to how a person can cope with kidney disease. Individuals in support groups talk about issues they deal with on a daily basis and are provided the opportunity to discuss more in-depth, personal decisions that other members have dealt with, or might face in the future.
While support groups will not be affiliated with the American Association of Kidney Patients (AAKP), please feel free to use AAKP publications to supplement information given out or discussed.
