ABSTRACT
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common long-term condition and is associated with increased mortality and a reduction in healthy years of life. Early identification and appropriate treatment of CKD can reduce these risks. The inclusion of CKD in any discussions with people about other long-term health conditions such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus is also essential. All nurses need to understand the risks associated with CKD so that they can develop the confidence to routinely discuss the condition with patients and support them to improve their health.
