As a Home Hemodialysis Registered Nurse (HHD RN), you will be providing education on Home Hemodialysis to patients at Waterbury at Home Dialysis Center to your patients and their care partners 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.
Flexible Monday-Friday 8am-5pm schedule (full-time 32-40 hours a week). No Weekends, No Holidays! Will be covering census in one facility; but must be flexible to support in other surrounding home facilities as needed.
Excellent Paid Training Provided on the HHD Modality!
*At least 6 months Dialysis experience is required.
What you can expect:
- 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.
- 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 strong, independent, and able to do the daily things that they love.
- Home RN partners to provide ongoing dialysis treatment education activities supporting the healthy growth of the home program.
- Lead, coach and guide with your nursing skills.
- You will work independently, while also building deep relationships with patients, support systems and care partners.
Schedule:
- Typically, an 8-hour day, Monday through Friday, with weekends and holidays off!
- Flexibility as you manage your own cases and as a result, own your own schedule.
- Scheduled home visits and on-call shifts vary by program and are compensated accordingly.
What we’ll provide:
- Clear and competitive career growth for a lifetime nursing career.
- If you are new to dialysis, we’ll provide a 9-12 week paid-training and the support to guide you through to becoming a nephrology nurse.
- Annual $3,000 tuition reimbursement and potential $25,000 scholarship opportunity.
- Comprehensive benefits package: including medical, dental, vision, 401k match, family resources, pet insurance, mental health resources, back-up child and elder care and so much more.
- Our culture is filled with compassion, care and the desire to help our patients, our teammates and their families live their best life.
