Community health worker intervention: Community health worker support that includes building trust, addressing social challenges, providing patient-centered education, and enhancing self-management.
Standard Care (in control arm): Participants receive standard care
Study summary
The overarching goal of this project is to refine and adapt previous work on the NAVIGATE-Kidney project for individuals with CKD. The investigators hypothesize that the multilevel NAVIGATE-Kidney program intervention will reduce the rate of central venous catheter use at KRT start (primary outcome), increase the rate of optimal KRT starts (secondary outcome), increase patient activation, and reduce decisional conflict (patient-centered outcomes) for individuals with advanced CKD. The project will have four (4) aims.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Composite Outcome: Time Until Kidney Replacement Therapy (KRT) Start with Central Venous Catheter (CVC) Use or Death — From Baseline until End of Study, KRT Start, or Death, whichever occurs first (up to 5 years) Composite outcome of time until participants in each arm either 1) begin dialysis (either as first KRT method or as a subsequent preparatory step for transplant) with a central venous catheter (CVC)), or 2) die from all-cause mortality, whichever occurs first.
