Abstract

The illness impacts ability to seek/obtain care, nutrition, transportation, maintain housing, etc. Individual medical crisis impacts multiple systems: family, friends, neighbors, employer/ co-workers, schools, taxpayers, social services, national economy, etc. Care givers often need social work services as much as the identified patient; "client" may include family/family of choice, friends, others. The cultural competency is always a factor. Diabetes & hypertension cause over 60% of kidney failure. African-American, Hispanic, Native American and Pacific Islanders are more likely to get diabetes &/or hypertension, thus kidney failure.
