Hiring Bonus Available!
DaVita, which is Italian for "giving life", is on a quest to build the greatest health care community the world has ever seen! We are seeking a Registered Nurse who is looking to give life in one of our outpatient dialysis centers. You can make an exceptional difference in the lives of our patients and their families dealing with end-stage renal failure or chronic kidney disease.
If you haven’t considered Nephrology before, read on as we think that you should. Dialysis Experience is NOT required. We provide comprehensive on-the-job training that will help you become a specialist in this area of nursing.
What you can expect:
- Long term patient relationships. Build meaningful relationships with patients and their families in an intimate outpatient setting.
- A team that feels and functions like a family. Staff RNs are a central part of a small interdisciplinary team of clinicians. Work alongside and support technicians, other nurses, dietitians, social workers, physicians, and the center manager.
- Fun is one of our core values! Happier nurses = healthier patients.
- Specialized, complex care. RNs deliver care to patients who are often dealing with multiple co-morbidities which require unique treatment plans and the ability to leverage a broad range of nursing skills and knowledge.
- Schedule. Shifts are typically 12 plus hours, 3 days per week. Schedule times will vary by locations but most of our RNs work early morning or day shifts.
What We Provide:
More than just pay, our DaVita Rewards package connects teammates to what matters most including:
- Continuity of care.
- Life and work balance.
- Comprehensive benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k) 50% match, paid time off, PTO cash out.
- Paid training: DaVita offers all new dialysis teammates a robust, paid training program to help you learn the right dialysis skills. The training is a mix of classroom and hands-on training.
- Opportunity for a nursing career for a lifetime. DaVita is committed to providing robust development and experiences for nurses. Whether you choose to remain in a patient-facing/caregiving role or grow (leadership operations, corporate functions, integrated care, clinical research), we can guide you on that journey.
Some details about this position:
- Current Registered Nurse (RN) license in the state of practice; Graduate Nurse pre-licensure available in some locations.
- At least one-year RN experience.
- Dialysis Experience Preferred.
- Associates Degree in Nursing (A.D.N) from accredited school of nursing required; Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N); three-year diploma from accredited diploma program may be substituted for nursing degree.
- Training may take place in a facility or a training clinic with a class of new teammates other than your assigned home clinic.
- You must be flexible on the final home clinic placement; it may be in a different location; there is also the potential to float to various clinics during and after your training.
- You must have a flexible schedule and be able to work mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays.
- A desire to deliver care in an empathetic, compassionate way.
- Experience assessing, troubleshooting, and making sound recommendations in stressful situations.
