HISTORY

In May 2003 President Fidel V. Ramos, by virtue of Presidential decree no.184 declared that National Kidney Month will be celebrated every month of June. Since then it was only the National Kidney and Transplant Institute that acted as the lead agency in the annual celebration. In 2003, the Board members of the Philippine Society of Nephrology decided they should also organize activities during the National Kidney Month, which included; Family day, Medical conferences for non nephrologist in cities where there were no nephrologist, tri-media interviews and lay fora to promote public awareness of Kidney Disease in the Philippines. The Family day was celebrated every first Sunday of the week, with the main objective of promoting camaraderie among physicians, patients and their caregivers. During the said celebration, the Nephrologist will not act as physician but as a person who reaches out to their patients and their caregivers and it also provided the venue for patients to meet other patients. In 2004, PAReh, an association of patients with kidney disease, their caregivers’ physicians and other entities involved in renal care was organized by PSN. The committee on Public health served as liaison between the PSN and PAReh. However through the years, only some Board members and members of Public health committee were the ones participating in the Family day celebration.
