    Cindy,

    I've tried replying to this a couple of times without results it seems. I have an education tool I put together for my providers on renal failure. Send me an email and I'll forward it to you since it's to large to attach here.

    Is this something that could be posted on the web site in the
    forms/tools section?

    I was just thinking along those same lines. I'll email it to Melissa and see if she can do that.
