The RightStart Program
Do
you remember how you felt when you started dialysis? Anxious, scared, and with

to educate and help new patients feel better and more in control of their health
during this critical time.
Rebecca Wingard, Nephrology Nurse and Vice President of Quality Initiatives for
Fresenius Medical Care, joins us today to talk about the RightStart Program.
