Kidney Care Coaches

1 out of 7 adults in the United States has kidney disease. Diabetes and high blood pressure are the two leading causes of kidney failure.

Hi, I’m your Coach Tifiro Cook, the Founder and CEO of Kidney Care Coaches. A two-time kidney transplant survivor and was on both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis for over a decade.

Kidney Care Coaches is a private practice coaching service that helps to empower people who suffer from chronic kidney disease (Stages 3-5), on dialysis, or awaiting a transplant. We provide three services for our clients: One-On-One Coaching, Group Coaching, and a Membership Site. We coach our clients on how to thrive and survive with their condition. Our goal is to coach, empower and give them back control of their lives and their health. We provide them with the necessary tools to improve their understanding of the importance of medical adherence, nutrition, exercise, understanding their labs, and caregiver support.

group

We understand, that often, sharing similar kidney disease challenges in a small group setting (no more than 6) is beneficial. It provides individuals the opportunity to share and learn from one another and know that they are not alone. Once a week the group coaching sessions are held for 45 minutes for 6 weeks. They are held on a tele-health platform (Zoom). This coaching will:
1. Address having the right mental attitude;
2. Adherence to your healthcare teams recommendations;
3. Importance of nutrition;
4. Exercise;
5. Skin care;
6. Dialysis options;
7. Tools to qualify you for the transplant list;
8. Caregiver support;
9. How to thrive and survive while going through kidney disease.
