Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the Answer of 25 April 2022 to Question 154082 on Kidney Diseases, how that information is held.
The National Health Service Electronic Staff Record does not identify renal counsellors as a staff group. Local NHS organisations will record the number of staff specifically identified as renal counsellors, although definitions of roles and responsibilities may differ between locations.
