What are the responsibilities and job description for the Registered Nurse position at DAVITA?
Registered Nurse – Home Hemodialysis
NOTE: The RN-HHD will be responsible for two clinics
- Longview, TX
- Shreveport, LA
We are looking for a self-motivated, organized RN who is passionate about patient care and excited for the opportunity to independently manage their cases with confidence and accountability.
As a Home Hemodialysis Registered Nurse (HHD RN) you will provide education on HHD dialysis to patients and their care givers in a clinical setting, which then allows them to dialyze from home. You have responsibility over the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure their treatment stays on track.
If your calling is to be both a nurse and educator, then you will love your work as a Home Hemodialysis RN!
- Dialysis Experience - NOT required
- Paid Training
- Outpatient clinic setting
- Monday-Friday, 8 hour day with weekends and holidays off
- Flexibility as you manage your own cases and your own schedule
What to expect:
- Educator - Empower your patients by teaching them to administer their own dialysis and to take their health back into their own hands. Training patients takes time and mental energy and the rewards of that investment come in seeing the transformation of your patients from feeling sick and afraid to being strong and independent and being able to do the daily things that they love. Educating patients on their options when it comes to dialysis not only helps them own their journey, but also expands the program to people who will benefit greatly from HHD.
- Autonomy - Provide comprehensive patient care in an independent setting. Apply your "core" nursing skills to assess, diagnose and implement complete care plans as you look at the whole patient. As a case manager, you will track and organize your patients. With the pride of ownership comes the joy of witnessing how your care impacts patients' lives.
- Wear many hats from Nurse, to Coach, to Leader - You will work independently, while also building deep relationships with patients, support systems, and care partners.
Requirements:
- Current Registered Nurse (RN) license in the state of practice
- Minimum of 12 months of RN experience
- Current driver's license, reliable transportation, and vehicle insurance in state of residence.
- Associates Degree in Nursing (A.D.N) from accredited school of nursing required or Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N). A three-year diploma from accredited diploma program may be substituted for nursing degree.
- Basic computer skills and proficiency in MS Word & Outlook.
Preferred:
- Previous Chronic Hemodialysis, Acute Dialysis and/or Home Hemodialysis (HHD) nursing experience
- Training/Teaching/Healthcare Education background
- Previous case management experience
- Familiarity with, or excitement to learn about telehealth technologies
- Certified Nephrology Nurse (CNN) or Certified Dialysis Nurse (CDN)
What We’ll Provide:
- Clear, and competitive career progression for a lifetime nursing career.
- Comprehensive benefits package: including medical, dental, vision, 401k match, family resources, mental health resources, back-up child and elder care and so much more.
