This series of videos has been developed to support clinicians who are caring for Aboriginal people with chronic kidney disease.

The videos aim to:

  • provide education on chronic kidney disease
  • empower Aboriginal community members
  • enhance the cultural capability of health staff.

Aunty Liz shares her lived experience with chronic kidney disease. She explains the healthcare-related experiences of Aboriginal people, including her journey of racism, mistrust, empowerment and taking back control.
