Patient Care Technician - Dialysis Exp Required

Patient Care Technician - DSD

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. This new service line aims to reduce the burden on patients and lower avoidable costs in the healthcare system. Ideal teammates will have significant experience within DaVita, thrive in a start-up environment, and have a track record of finding ways to grow the service line. Teammates must be comfortable working autonomously and have demonstrated the ability to collaborate with cross-functional resources.

What you can expect :

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. You will work 3 days a week - with no required on call, yet your impact on the lives of our patients and their families will be felt every day.

Patient Care : Spending the majority of your day in direct one-on-one patient care to provide safe, comfortable and hygienic dialysis treatment.

Complexity : 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.

Autonomy and Critical Thinking : 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.
