Job Description:

Registered Nurse123 N US HWY 75, Denison, Texas, 75020, United States of America

Are you a self-motivated, organized individual who is passionate about patient care? Do you have confidence & accountability to manage patient cases independently?

As a Peritoneal Dialysis Registered Nurse (RN PD), you will be providing education on peritoneal dialysis to patients and their care givers in a clinical setting, which then allows them to dialyze from home. You will have responsibility over the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure their treatment stays on track.

HOURS & SCHEDULE: This is a part time/per diem position. Requires working 1-2 days per week (8-5).

* Dialysis Experience - NOT required
* 9-12 week - Paid Training
* Manage your own cases, own your own schedule.
* Scheduled home visits and on-call shifts vary by program, and are compensated accordingly.

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. You will track and organize your patients. With the pride of ownership comes the joy of witnessing how your care impacts patients' lives.
* 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. Educating patients on their options when it comes to dialysis not only helps them own their journey, but also expands the program to people who will benefit greatly from PD.
* You will work independently, while also building deep relationships with patients, support systems, and care partners.



Requirements:

* Current Registered Nurse (RN) license in the state of practice
* Minimum of 12 months of RN experience
* Current driver's license, reliable transportation, and vehicle insurance in state of residence.
* Associates Degree (ADN) or Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from accredited school of nursing. Three year diploma from accredited diploma program may be substituted for nursing degree.
* Basic computer skills and proficiency in MS Word and Outlook.

You might also have (a.k.a. nice-to-haves):

* Previous Chronic Hemodialysis, Acute Dialysis, Home Hemodialysis (HHD), or Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) nursing experience
* Training/Teaching/Healthcare Education background
* Previous case management experience
* Familiarity with, or excitement to learn about telehealth technologies
* Certified Nephrology Nurse (CNN); Certified Dialysis Nurse (CDN); or Certified Peritoneal Dialysis Nurse (CPDN)
