Community Health Workers in an Interdisciplinary Outpatient CKD Clinic to Optimize Social Care Navigation, Patient Engagement, and Home Dialysis Utilization
Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if this intervention (the CHOOSE Home intervention) is feasible and may lead to more home dialysis usage in a high-risk patient population. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will there be an increase in home dialysis selection or initiation over study follow up? * Will there be a change in patient reported status of Health-Related Social Needs (HRSNs) and patient engagement at 1 year follow up? Researchers will compare the intervention group that will include interdisciplinary care (IDC) and the integration of a Community Health Worker (CHW) into the chronic kidney disease (CKD) care process to the IDC only control group. The research team will assess whether the intervention led to better social care navigation, enhanced patient engagement, and increased home dialysis use.
