Hi
Pus cells in the urine often indicate an infection. If the pus cells are decreasing and she has no symptoms we probably don't need to do anything.
The most common causes of RBCS in the urine are infection and stones. However it might be advisable to just repeat the urine test in a few days
Good luck.
