The COVID pandemic was an unexpected stressor which heightened our professional awareness of vulnerability in our patients. It also revealed weaknesses in our dialysis care process. These vulnerabilities pre-existed the crisis and persist after it. We need to address health inequity as we recover and redesign dialysis care. I will discuss the literature on the effect of ethnicity, educational level, health literacy and socioeconomic status in the UK
