Nephrology Division Mandate<\/h2>

The Division of Nephrology promotes the health of children living with kidney disease through excellence in evidence-based clinical care, clinical and basic research, and education and advocacy.<\/p>

Our mission is to deliver state of the art care by defining clinical benchmarks and developing evidence-based clinical pathways, to enhance the quality of care by defining unmet needs and through quality improvement projects, to foster translational research through multicenter collaboration and integrating research into clinical care, and to promote the growth of our provincial program through the expansion of regional care clinics.<\/p>

The Clinical Care Program has evolved into subspecialty care and includes dedicated programs in General Nephrology, Chronic Kidney Disease, Dialysis, Kidney Transplant, and Quality, each with their own multidisciplinary teams and Medical Directors.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
