Supporting the ESKD patient in their healthcare journey through a person-centered care approach enables and empowers patients to take a more active role in their health and healthcare. With the right knowledge, skills, and confidence, a person can become an activated self-manager who is ready, willing, and able to participate in their own healthcare and engage in shared decision-making.
