What to Expect:

• Direct patient care, providing safe, comfortable dialysis treatment.
• Care for multiple patients, monitoring and recording stats, patient observations, and machine setup.
• Exposure to blood and needles.
• Build long-term relationships with patients and educate them on dialysis-related topics.
• Work under RN supervision as part of a multidisciplinary team.
• Opportunity to earn certification as a Hemodialysis Technician.

Requirements:

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Comfortable working around blood and needles.
• Ability to work long hours (10-12 hours shifts) on your feet.
• Willingness to train across multiple clinics.
• Stable employment history.
