The Medical Director's Role in Managing the Dialysis Unit

Arek Brigmon*

The ESRD Conditions for Coverage specify the duties of a dialysis unit medical director, which cover a variety of quality, safety, and instructional areas. Many of these duties necessitate leadership abilities, which are neither innate nor learned as part of the medical director's education. An effective medical director can influence the culture of the dialysis facility to foster an environment where patients and staff can voice concerns about subpar procedures without fear of retaliation, and where quality improvement and safety are continuously iterated processes that value feedback from all stakeholders. As a result, fewer shortcuts and workarounds that could jeopardise patient safety and quality are used since regulations and procedures make it simpler to act morally.

Michael Goodwin*

In medicine, mentoring has always been significant. In fact, one could claim that's how medical professionals are educated. Mentorship has also been shown to protect and advance those who want to practice academic medicine. Since interest in the discipline has waned over the past ten years, mentorship in nephrology has taken on a crucial role. This article will outline the effects of mentoring on medical careers, discuss several types of mentors and their traits, and list the duties of both mentors and mentees. We will talk about specific problems in nephrology and how mentorship has been used to solve them. We come to the conclusion that mentoring is a potent tool that can contribute to a promising future for our industry.
