Part two of this National Service Framework sets four quality requirements and identifies 23 markers of good practice that can support NHS organisations in the prevention of chronic kidney disease in people at risk; in developing strategies for slowing down the progression of the disease; minimising the consequences of acute renal failure; and extending palliative care to people on dialysis who are near the end of their lives.
