CaReMe (Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolism)
When we talk CVRM and CaReMe, we’re talking about health interconnectivity. We’re saying that if we stop focusing on each of these conditions individually and instead begin to understand that treating cardiovascular, renal and metabolic diseases (CVRM) as interlinked, we can save lives.
Which is why we practise the CaReMe approach to CVRM where we take a new direction to prevention and treatment, and understand that cardiovascular, renal and metabolic health are each a piece of the complete picture.
