The Alaska Kidney Patients Association will present their free 9th Annual Education Symposium on Saturday, May 31, 2013 at Changepoint Church in Anchorage.
The Symposium consists of live speaker lectures from local kidney doctors and other professionals for individuals experiencing reduced kidney function, persons at risk for kidney failure or disease, dialysis patients, transplant recipients, and their families and caretakers.
The workshops are targeted at improving the quality of life for people with kidney disease and providing information on issues relevant to their daily lives. Our goal is for patients and their family members to better understand their illness/disease, which allows them to become a partner in their treatment and to live a healthy kidney- friendly lifestyle.
The symposium also includes a breakfast snack and lunch. This is a free event. If you are interested in learning more or would like to register for the symposium, please go to the Alaska Kidney Patient Association website at http://www.alaskakidney.org, call (907) 333-2257 or email info@alaskakidney.org.
