||
WHEREAS, Fresenius Kidney Care, a network of more than 2,400 | ||
dialysis facilities nationwide, is a trusted resource for the many | ||
Texans who rely on lifesaving dialysis care for chronic kidney | ||
disease and end-stage renal disease; and | ||
WHEREAS, A division of Fresenius Medical Care North America, | ||
Fresenius Kidney Care is dedicated to providing comprehensive | ||
services to help kidney disease patients live fuller, more active | ||
lives; Fresenius Kidney Care is a worldwide leader in renal disease | ||
treatment and research, and its parent company is at the forefront | ||
of developing new technologies and treatment strategies for | ||
patients with kidney disease; and | ||
WHEREAS, Fresenius Kidney Care's dialysis centers are | ||
equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by highly | ||
trained care teams that assist patients in understanding their | ||
treatment options and managing their condition through diet, | ||
exercise, and medication; these clinics are an essential resource | ||
to their patients, and staff members are committed to ensuring that | ||
dialysis services are available to everyone who needs them, even | ||
during natural disasters; to that end, Fresenius Kidney Care has | ||
helped to evacuate patients during several major hurricanes, | ||
including Hurricane Harvey, when the organization assisted in | ||
