About this job
Be different. Do what you love.
As a Home Hemo Dialysis Registered Nurse (HHD RN), you will work
on the cutting edge of nephrology nursing by training and educating patients in
our clinics and preparing them to dialyze in the privacy of their own
homes.
In this nursing role, you
take responsibility for the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure
their home dialysis treatment stays on track. You will
work a Monday to Friday schedule-yet your impact on the lives of our patients
and their families will be felt every day.
"I have more autonomy and more
responsibility for the patient. I give complete care and have to manage it all,
but I always have someone I can call for help." - Deb, Home Therapy RN
Here's
what you can expect as a Home Hemodialysis Dialysis Registered Nurse:
Complexity - Embrace a
mentally demanding role with many moving parts.
Expect to manage "a
very organized chaos." You multitask in myriad ways - put down one
patient's chart, start another, work with a physician, run out to get a
medication, respond to a supplier's request - with lots of loose ends to pull
together and a lot of follow up. It's challenging, fun and keeps your day fresh.
Educator - Empower
your patients by teaching them to administer their own dialysis and to take
their health back into their own hands.
If you feel your calling has always been to be both a nurse and
educator, then you will love your work as a home hemodialysis registered
nurse. 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 and
independent.
Autonomy - 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"
nursing skills to assess, diagnose and implement complete care plans as you
look at the whole patient. There's a lot to track and manage and the joy comes
in witnessing how your care impacts patients' lives.
