ULM's SNPhA Chapter Makes News with CKD Event
After seven long months of preparation, on September 29th, ULM SNPhA’s Chronic Kidney Disease initiative hosted a kidney screening at the ULM College of Pharmacy. This screening was a joint collaboration with the National Kidney Foundation of Louisiana and the help of ULM’s Student Nursing Association nursing students. The screening was heavily promoted in the month leading up to it, with CKD co-chair Craig Lavespere and SNA secretary Lauren Welch appearing on two local news shows. Ultimately, they were able to screen 87 patients for high risk of CKD or in early stage CKD.
