About this job

Improve lives, form lasting relationships and have fun at work.

"I work in stressful situations where patients need urgent attention and it's exciting to be able to help people get better and get through crisis." - Jerry A.

Work autonomously in an intense hospital environment - without the typical hospital routine. Provide the highest level of care at one of the more than 800 hospital units and ensure your patients' safety, comfort, and well-being with a nurse to patient ratio typically not more than 1:2. As a nurse at DaVita you are on your toes working in a fast-paced, constantly evolving environment with new challenges to trouble-shoot and overcome daily. Your sense of purpose and accomplishment at the end of each day is powerful.

What can you expect as an acute dialysis nurse at DaVita?

Patients - Help your patients, when they need it the most.

Patient care is our top priority and we look for teammates who share our commitment to Service Excellence as well as Continuous Improvement. You can build your career in nephrology and practice multiple therapies (CRRT, aphaeresis, etc.) as an Acute Nephrology RN at DaVita

Independence - Manage your patients on your own in a hospital setting.

As a teammate in an acute setting you, work on your own almost all of the time. Each day you assess, troubleshoot, and make sound decisions for critical patients. What an exciting challenge to take on!

Intensity - Expect the unexpected.

No two days are ever the same for an acute dialysis nurse. The setting is dynamic and each patient's needs are unique. When you walk in the door each day you don't know what patients you might have - their condition, when you will get them or when you will be done for the day.

"I love problem solving and the challenge of the role of acute nursing. I get a lot of respect from the doctors and my team." - Ginny E.

Important Information about this role:

This program covers three hospitals in the Asheville area (Mission, Saint Joseph, and Asheville VA... on occasion, this position will also cover Ruthuford Hospital as well). This position will work 3 scheduled shifts per week (10 to 12 hour shifts), and will take ONE on-call day per week (24 hour period), and ONE weekend call on rotation with the team (there are 7 nurses on the team, so weekend call would be once every 7 weeks on average). Program is closed on Sundays, so only a call nurse on Sundays. At Mission and the VA; the unit can handle two patients at a time... all other ICU environments will be bedside, and will be one patient per nurse. Looking for a strong TEAM player. Looking for someone who wants to GROW with their career. Looking for a POSITIVE, Energetic, Outgoing, and upbeat person to maintain that positive environment for the team as well as the patients. Ideal experience would be: ER, ED, ICU, PACU, Medsurge, Telemetry, and any other critical care background (if you don't have any dialysis experience). Will train the right person on dialysis! MUST have at least 1 year as an RN to apply for this role!

The shining star in this role should have:

Current and valid RN license in the state where performing duties required

Graduate of an accredited nursing program required

Current CPR certification required

Medical/surgical, ICU, CCU, and ER experience (preferred)

Dialysis nursing experience (strongly preferred)

CNN (preferred)

Experience assessing, trouble shooting and making sound recommendations in stressful situations

Flexibility like a gymnast - okay, not literally. What we mean is someone who thrives in an environment that is constantly changing and will face new challenges head-on

Excellent communication skills to listen and communicate with patients and teammates

Multi-tasking skills, with great time management and prioritizing capabilities

Basic computer skills and proficiency in MS Word and Outlook required
