Each dialysis clinic has a social worker onsite to help patients adjust and build their coping skills. Vernon Silva, LCSW, a Nephrology social worker for more than 20 years, shares how the role has evolved. The nephrology mental health professional now uses evidence-based results to help people through vocational rehabilitation, or even transition to different dialysis treatment options. Listen in to this show as Lori and Vernon discuss how the social worker in your life can assist you and help you reach your goals.
