March is National Kidney Month, and March 9 is World Kidney Day. World Kidney Day is a global campaign to raise awareness of the importance of our kidneys to overall health and to reduce the frequency and impact of kidney disease and associated health problems worldwide. The 2023 theme is “Kidney Health for All: Preparing for the Unexpected, Supporting the Vulnerable.” The campaign will focus on raising awareness about disastrous events (natural or man-made) and the impact on people living with kidney disease when access to appropriate diagnostic services, treatment, and care is impacted.
