Free kidney disease screenings were organised in Jodhpur and Phalodi
DaVita Care India and Bridge of Life (BOL), a non-profit organisation founded by DaVita Health Care Partners, partnered with HBS Trust to facilitate kidney disease screenings and education events in Phalodi and Jodhpur.
Over 650 people were screened and educated about chronic kidney disease (CKD). DaVita Care India teammates volunteered at the screenings in partnership with HBS Trust and BOL to provide CKD and education services to the people at the event. Community members also received CKD prevention education related to nutrition, exercise and avoiding risky behaviours.
Also, BOL has partnered with Nepal Kidney Foundation where 2,282 Nepalese were screened to raise awareness about the disease and develop a long-term strategy to address kidney care in key regions of the country.
