Fresenius Medical Care marks World Kidney Day and National Kidney Month

03/10/2026 | Short News

Fresenius Medical Care, the world’s leading provider of products and services for individuals with renal diseases, is joining the global community to mark World Kidney Day on March 12 and National Kidney Month in the U.S. throughout March. These annual observances highlight the importance of kidney health, early detection, and education to help reduce the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Often referred to as a “silent condition,” kidney disease can progress with few or no symptoms in its early stages. Millions of people worldwide are living with CKD, many without knowing it.  As a trusted leader in kidney care, Fresenius Medical Care supports people affected by kidney disease every day through patient‑centered care, innovation, and education.

To celebrate National Kidney Month in the U.S., Fresenius Kidney Care is unveiling a reimagined kidney care education program. This clinically approved curriculum is designed to support people with kidney disease, and their loved ones, at every stage of the journey.

The program features dynamic, on-demand video modules that allow participants to tailor their learning experience. Individuals can explore topics most relevant to their needs, whether they are newly diagnosed, working to slow progression, or exploring treatment options. Each module delivers practical, real-world guidance in a supportive and empowering way.

Every kidney journey is unique, and education should be, too. Which is why the experience will be available in both self-paced and small group, facilitator-led formats, providing flexibility to meet individual preferences.

Throughout March, Fresenius Medical Care will continue to spotlight kidney health education, awareness, and resources for patients, caregivers, employees, and communities around the world.
