A unique specialization program that will allow you to acquire advanced training in this field"

Nursing plays a decisive role in the care of the patient with chronic kidney disease, both from its onset and in later stages. In addition to skills in renal replacement techniques such as the acquisition of specific professional competencies, specific and quality care is required in the various studies of renal disease. 

The care of the nephrological patient, including renal function replacement techniques, has made significant advances in recent years, both in renal transplantation and in the health care of the nephrological patient, requiring specialized and continuous training for nursing. Such specialized training is rarely found in standard curricular training, so many nurses are unaware of important aspects of caring for these patients. Training in this area is necessary to guarantee a minimum quality of care.
