Training Provided:
Paid, hands‑on training program. Dialysis experience is preferred but NOT required.

DaVita Kidney Care brings industry‑leading clinical quality to patients on‑site at skilled nursing facilities (SNF) through a new team called DaVita Skilled Nursing Dialysis Services.

Approximately 10% of all dialysis patients reside in a SNF and are transported to dialysis three times a week. DSD Services teammates will have access to all the capabilities and resources DaVita has to offer, and will work to quickly leverage these to develop the infrastructure and rapidly grow the new service line.

Ideal teammates have experience in dialysis, enjoy a start‑up type environment, and can find ways to get stuff done. They are comfortable working autonomously and can collaborate with cross‑functional resources.

In this role, you take responsibility for the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure their dialysis treatment stays on track. DSD RNs will troubleshoot, make sound decisions related to their dialysis treatment, and occasionally partner with SNF staff to coordinate care.

RNs are educators. As a DSD Services RN, you will conduct impactful and meaningful education to patients and their families in the SNF setting.

The RN’s primary responsibility is to independently demonstrate best practice techniques and deliver optimal dialysis care. The role includes supervising Dialysis Technicians who are tasked with delivering tandem care to meet capacity and efficiency goals.

DSD Dialysis care is complex but fulfilling. Meeting or exceeding clinical outcomes is a goal, and multitasking is an expectation to meet the needs of the service, the patients, and our SNF partners.

Provide comprehensive patient care in an independent setting. Apply core nursing skills to assess, diagnose, and implement complete care plans.
