About DaVita SNF Dialysis (DSD)

Approximately 10% of all dialysis patients reside in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) and are transported to outpatient clinics three times a week—placing a significant physical burden on patients and adding avoidable costs to the healthcare system.

DaVita SNF Dialysis (DSD) brings high-quality renal care directly on-site to residents inside an intimate, modern 6-chair dialysis den. In this specialized role, you serve as the clinical leader—partnering directly with a dedicated Patient Care Technician (PCT) to deliver life-sustaining hemodialysis care without the chaos of hospital on-call or crowded chronic clinics, backed by all the capabilities, technology, and resources DaVita has to offer.

What You Can Expect & What You’ll Do

In this role, you take clinical leadership of comprehensive ongoing patient care, ensuring each resident's dialysis treatment stays safe, comfortable, and on track.

• •Autonomous Clinical Leadership: Lead treatment operations within an intimate 6-chair den setting. Perform comprehensive pre- and post-dialysis assessments, evaluate fluid removal orders, monitor hemodynamic stability and vital signs, and manage complex vascular access (AV fistulas, grafts, and central venous catheters / CVCs).
• •Direct Teamwork & Mentorship: Direct and collaborate closely with your dedicated PCT teammate, ensuring safe patient workflows, strict infection control, sterile protocols, and continuous quality care.
• •Technical & Machine Operations: Operate, set up, and troubleshoot Fresenius hemodialysis machines (2008T / Bibag). Maintain oversight across water treatment systems—including both central water treatment rooms and individual portable Reverse Osmosis (RO) units—and ensure daily water quality testing and infection control standards.
• •Holistic Interdisciplinary Care: Partner directly with SNF facility care teams, attending physicians, nephrologists, dietitians, and your Regional Operations Manager (ROM) to optimize clinical outcomes.
