DaVita is seeking a Registered Nurse who is looking to give life in an outpatient dialysis center. You can make an exceptional difference in the lives of our patients and their families dealing with end-stage renal failure or chronic kidney disease.
If you haven't considered Nephrology before, read on as we think that you should. Dialysis Experience is NOT required.
What you can expect:
- Long term patient relationships. Build meaningful relationships with patients and their families in an intimate outpatient setting.
- A team that feels and functions like a family. Staff RNs are a central part of a small interdisciplinary team of clinicians. Work alongside and support technicians, other nurses, dietitians, social workers, physicians, and the center manager.
- Fun is one of our core values. Happier nurses = healthier patients.
- Specialized, complex care. RNs deliver care to patients who are often dealing with multiple co-morbidities, requiring unique treatment plans and broad nursing skills.
- Fast-paced environment. RNs oversee a group of patients, conducting observations, measuring stats, and machine setup, supported by PCTs. You will work with your head, heart, and hands each day.
- Schedule. Shifts are typically 10-12 hours, 3-4 days per week, mostly early morning or day shifts. Some holidays required.
- Clinical leadership. DaVita has high standards and expects nurses to contribute to patient health improvements through clinical goals and quality initiatives.
Additional details:
- Training may occur in a facility or training clinic, possibly with teammates other than your assigned home clinic.
- Flexibility on final clinic placement, with potential to float to various clinics during and after training.
- Must have a flexible schedule, able to work mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays.
- Current RN license in the state of practice; Graduate Nurse pre-licensure may be available in some locations.
- Desire to deliver empathetic, compassionate care.
- Experience in assessing, troubleshooting, and making recommendations in stressful situations.
- Excellent communication skills for patient and team interactions.
- Associates Degree in Nursing (A.D.N.) required; B.S.N. or a three-year diploma may be substituted.
- Basic computer skills, including MS Word and Outlook, for electronic medical record documentation.
- Nice-to-haves include ICU, CCU, ER, or Med Surg experience, and certifications like CNN or CDN.
At DaVita, we value community, diversity, and belonging. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to inclusion and diversity.
