1 Coalition for Supportive Care of Kidney Patients

2 About the Coalition The Coalition for Supportive Care of Kidney Patients (CSCKP) brings together like minded people who care deeply about the quality of compassionate, supportive care for kidney patients. We are professionals from many disciplines and laypersons who are working for true patient centered care that values quality of life. Mission Promote effective interchange among patients, families, healthcare professionals, and payers to ensure the provision of patient centered supportive care for patients with kidney disease. Vision Offer palliative care to everyone with chronic and end stage kidney disease, from the time of diagnosis through the end of life and bereavement. Informed, supported patients and families receive the care they want. 2

3 Priority Areas Goal Create culture change that transforms the treatment of persons with kidney disease, putting every patient at the center and integrating palliative principles and practices throughout the care continuum. Priority Areas Education: Pursue development and deployment of educational offerings for healthcare professional team members and patients/families Quality, Advocacy, and Policy: Improve quality of care under the umbrella of the 3 Aims and the National Quality Strategy Research: Foster conditions for conducting research that meets supportive kidney care research agenda 3

10 Education In 2017 Coalition leadership/membership to present Supportive Care in Nephrology: Teaching the Clinician, Treating the Patient pre conference course at NKF Spring Clinical Meetings (April 2017) 10

11 Quality, Advocacy, & Policy Coalition Steering Committee members Nancy Armistead, MPA, and Louis Diamond, MB, ChB attended the NHPCO s Congressional screening of the PBS/Frontline documentary, Being Mortal, based on Dr. Atul Gawande's best selling book of the same name. Ms. Armistead and Dr. Diamond met with Senator Mark Warner's (D VA) office to express the Coalition's support for The Care Planning Act, Senator Warner's and Senator Johnny Isakson's (R GA) bipartisan legislation designed to provide people with serious illness the freedom to make more informed decisions about their care and the power to have those decisions honored. Dale Lupu attended the National Academy of Medicine s private workgroup meeting on Assessing Progress in End of Life and Serious Illness Care 11

12 Research Grants Funding from the Patrick and Catherine Weldon Donaghue Medical Research Foundation awarded to George Washington University with the Coalition serving as a sub awardee. The MY WAY (Make Your Wishes About You) Project will test advance care planning with patients with advanced kidney disease. Three clinical sites are also serving as sub awardees: Jane Schell, MD University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Kidney Clinic Jennifer S. Scherer, MD New York University Nephrology Faculty Group Practice Michael Germain, MD Baystate Medical Center 12

13 Research Grants Funding from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation awarded to the Coalition 15 month grant to support the development of the Pathways Project Focus on evidence based best practices for delivering person centered palliative care to patients with CKD The project will develop tools to establish pathways to conservative non dialytic management, palliative care throughout the continuum of kidney disease, and dialysis withdrawal for those patients who choose to stop dialysis. 13

14 Research The Coalition reached out to Sean Morrison, MD, Director of the National Palliative Care Research Center (NPCRC), asking for CKD to be among those chronic diseases for which the NPCRC would develop research priorities. Consequently, Alvin Moss, MD, Ann O Hare, Mi Kyung Song, PhD, RN, and Manjula Kurella Tamura, MD, were invited to participate in a NPCRC NIH Research Priorities for Geriatric Palliative Care in Surgery and Select Medical Sub Specialties workshop to develop research priorities for supportive care for patients with chronic disease, including CKD. Manuscript on CKD palliative care research priorities is in press in the Journal of Palliative Medicine. 14
