Regina Grau Estellés

I have been a Pediatric Nurse since 2015. I have worked in nursing for the last twenty years, in various areas: Inpatient Care, Emergency Care, Outpatient Care and Day Hospital. Over the last few years, I have been working in Inpatient Care, primarily in the Pediatric Nephrology Department. The complexity of these cases has been a motivator for me to expand my area of expertise and focus my training on the Hemodialysis Unit and alternative extracorporeal depuration methods. My goal is to continue to grow as a professional, to be there for patients and their family throughout their chronic illness and tend to their needs.
