DaVita Kidney Care is bringing our industry‑leading clinical quality to patients on‑site at skilled nursing facilities (SNF) through a new team called DaVita Skilled Nursing Dialysis Services.

Approximately 10% of all dialysis patients reside in a SNF and are transported to dialysis three times a week, placing a significant burden on patients and adding avoidable costs to the health care system. DSD Services teammates will have access to all the capabilities and resources DaVita has to offer, and will work to quickly leverage these to develop the infrastructure and rapidly grow the new service line.

Ideal teammates will have experience in dialysis, get energized by a start‑up type environment and improving the lives of patients, and have a track record of finding ways to Get Stuff Done (GSD). Teammates must be comfortable working autonomously and have demonstrated the ability to collaborate with cross‑functional resources across the organization.

3 days a week, 12+ hour shifts, no on‑call. Primary work schedule will be 3–4 days a week with some required travel to other SNF clinics within your region (depending on business and patient needs). Alternating Saturdays will also be required. This position will be open for a minimum of three days.

Training provided. DaVita offers a robust, paid training program to help you learn the right dialysis skills. Your training will include a combination of classroom and hands‑on learning, through DaVita’s award‑winning training programs. Hours of work may vary during the training period; however, you will typically be working between 32–40 hours/week during training.
