Travel Dialysis Nursing Jobs

If you’re a nurse with exceptional talent and a true calling to make a difference in patients’ lives while getting to explore different regions across the United States, it’s time to explore career opportunities as a travel dialysis nurse. SkyBridge Healthcare helps passionate healthcare professionals such as yourself forge connections with healthcare organizations across the country in need of special skills.

Rationale for Working as a Travel Dialysis RN

With nurse burnout potentially affecting so many medical workers, travel dialysis nursing jobs can help you avoid stress and pressures. The career requires hard work, but you’ll gain experience in multiple facilities in the nation, which nurses may find invigorating, motivating them to do their best. High compensation and good benefits sweeten the deal. As you boost skills and partner with new associates, you enhance your resume.

Duties of Dialysis Nursing

Your main responsibility is to care for patients with acute or chronic kidney failure. The job will boost your expertise in administering dialysis and knowledge of kidney function and disease. Main duties include:

• Set up dialysis machines and operate the equipment
• Safely administer dialysis medications
• Assess patients
• Monitor patients
• Educate families and patients about managing kidney disease
• Work in conjunction with nephrology teammates to optimize care for patients

Job Sites for Dialysis Nurses

Many types of healthcare venues offer dialysis RN travel nursing jobs, such as:

• Dialysis centers
• ICUs
• Home health
• Dialysis clinics
• Hospice facilities
• Nursing homes
• Transplant facilities

You may work with LPN/LVNs, clinical managers, nutritionists and dieticians, patient care techs, administrative workers, case managers, social workers, and dialysis RNs.

Certification and Education for Dialysis RNs

You need an associate degree in nursing or a bachelor’s degree in nursing to work as a dialysis registered nurse, with proof that you’ve passed the National Council Licensure Examination.

For a smoother career path, obtain special certification and training in nephrology nursing through groups like the Nephrology Nursing Certification Commission or the American Nephrology Nurses Association to keep up to date on changes in the field.

Certification Requirements for Dialysis RNS

Obtaining certification is beneficial but not always required to show you have expertise and training to qualify for travel dialysis nursing jobs.

Many nurses opt for Certified Dialysis Nurse (CDN) and Certified Nephrology Nurse (CNN) credentials, which require you to have the requisite educational background and experience before taking their examinations.

SkyBridge Healthcare recommends you consider certification because it can lead to higher pay and new opportunities in travel nurse dialysis jobs.

Experience Required for Dialysis RN Positions

Generally, medical facilities demand you have at least two years of recent experience in a hospital setting, so you’re ready on day one as a travel nurse for dialysis patients.
