She monitors disease progression, manages comorbidities like hypertension and diabetes, and educates patients on lifestyle, diet, and medication management to optimize long-term kidney health.
Marphyrose also oversees dialysis care, coordinating initiation, monitoring treatments, managing complications, and ensuring proper access for hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. She manages medication regimens, adjusting prescriptions based on renal function and lab results.
