Chronic Kidney Disease
Kidney disease is a slow story with fast turns. Close attention to medications, blood pressure, and diet at home slows progression and protects quality of life.
How we care for it at home
- Medication list scrubbed for kidney-toxic prescriptions and over-the-counters.
- Blood pressure and diabetes managed to renal-protective targets.
- Nutrition guidance calibrated to stage — not generic 'kidney diets'.
- Coordination with nephrology and, where appropriate, honest planning for dialysis or conservative care.
What we watch for
- Trends in eGFR, potassium, and phosphorus.
- Fluid status and blood pressure.
- Anemia and bone health.
- Goals of care as the disease advances — a conversation, not a form.
