Patient Empowerment Series | Patient Empowerment In The Age Of Technology

With the advancement of technology throughout the 21st century, we have seen a growing role for the utilization of information technology applied to health and health care. Health information technology (HIT),including HIT used by patients, can play an important role in patient empowerment by creating new opportunities for patients and families to participate actively in their care management. In the Nephrology setting, HIT can help patients with chronic kidney disease be informed, engaged, committed, and collaborative in managing their health and care.

As part of our Patient Empowerment series, this presentation brings you concepts and resources to help improve health literacy among your patients, especially those with chronic kidney disease, as they manage the complexities of their care regimen. Health literacy is crucial for dialysis and transplant patients so they can be empowered to participate in shared decision-making.
