Nierpatiënten Vereniging Nederland vacancies

There are around 2,000 new patients diagnosed with kidney failure every year. Sometimes they aren’t even aware of it, since symptoms often don’t manifest until the kidneys have already suffered severe damage. And the worse the damage, the more physical, social, and psychological obstacles patients face.

The Nierpatiënten Vereniging Nederland (NVN) has been promoting the interests of people with kidney disease since 1977. Part of that entails sharing information through channels like its member magazine, ‘Wisselwerking’, and the theme days it organizes in partnership with other patient associations. Nieren.nl was launched in 2018. It’s a joint initiative from the Kidney Foundation and the NVN. Nieren.nl is the premier platform where patients and families can find independent, reliable, incredibly valuable information.
