RETENTION BONUS PROVIDED: $7,500.00

Patient Care Tech (OCDT): Certified Dialysis Technicians are eligible to receive a $7,500.00 retention bonus after completing one year employment.

Patient Care Tech - DaVita Skilled Nursing Dialysis (DSD): This position is located at 36 Old Hickory Ridge Rd., Washington, PA 15301.

Schedule: 3‑4 Days A Week, 12+ Hour Shifts.

DaVita Kidney Care is bringing our 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 placing a significant burden on patients and adding significant avoidable costs to the health care system.

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 will have significant experience within DaVita, get energized by a start‑up type environment and improving the lives of patients, and have a track record of finding ways to GSD.

Teammates must be comfortable working autonomously and have demonstrated the ability to collaborate with cross‑functional resources across the Village.

In this role, you take responsibility for the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure their dialysis treatment stays on track. PCTs will work in conjunction with dialysis RNs to provide dialysis care.

Work Schedule:

The PCT will be based at our site dialysis den in the Premier Washington – Oak Springs facility and may be asked to support additional surrounding sites depending on business needs. Operations function Monday through Saturday. Scheduled days will vary based on market needs.

DSD Dialysis care is a complex but fulfilling service line. Meeting and/or exceeding clinical outcomes are the goals 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. Plan to be on your toes at all times. You use your mind constantly. You apply your "core" skills to monitor patients before, during and after dialysis treatment including measuring and recording stats, patient observations, and hemodialysis machine setup. There's a lot to track and manage and the joy comes in witnessing how your care impacts patients' lives.
