Journal Descriptions
The Journal of Renal Care (JORC), established in 2006, is the official journal of the European Dialysis and Transplant Nursing Association/European Renal Care Association (EDTNA/ERCA) and is published quarterly by Wiley‑Blackwell. It serves as a prime international forum for dissemination of scholarly work that connects research, education and clinical practice in the field of renal care. The journal takes a multidisciplinary approach to kidney health, greatly emphasizing contributions that improve patient outcomes and support healthcare practitioners working with people affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its treatments, such as dialysis and transplantation. It publishes peer‑reviewed original research, clinical audits, quality improvement reports, evidence‑based practice evaluations, literature reviews, and other scholarly contributions that reflect best practice and innovation in renal care. JORC values pragmatic research with real‑world applicability, focusing on patient‑centred interventions, nursing practices, psychosocial dimensions of care, and organizational strategies for improving healthcare delivery in nephrology settings. Its readership includes renal nurses, allied health professionals, nephrologists, transplant teams, educators, and policymakers striving to enhance renal health services and professional competencies. The journal fosters global scholarly dialogue and professional development among the renal care community by promoting rigorous, relevant research that addresses challenges in both clinical and community care environments.
