DaVita Dialysis Registered Nurse

DaVita operates 6-chair dialysis dens on-site at Skilled Nursing Facilities. The Atlanta area facilities are currently operating on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The hours are likely to be about 5 am-5 pm, but operations could expand in the future. The local DaVita SNF Dialysis dens are on-site at AG Rhodes Atlanta, AG Rhodes Wesley Woods and Meadowbrook in Tucker.

The RN could get some hours at a DaVita outpatient hemodialysis facility to maintain full-time hours.

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. DSD RNs will troubleshoot, and make sound decisions for our patients related to their dialysis treatment and will occasionally partner alongside the SNF staff to coordinate care.

Patient education. RNs by training, are Educators. As a DSD Services RN, you will be provided the opportunity to conduct impactful and meaningful education to patients and their families in the SNF setting.
