Dialysis nurses care for patients receiving dialysis treatment for kidney disease. As an acute dialysis travel RN, you provide individual care to patients at a list of different medical facilities based on your employer’s network locations. Your responsibilities include patient assessment, monitoring equipment, and consulting with the patients’ doctor regarding their treatment plan. You also teach the patient and their family about living with kidney disease and healthy living. Although each assignment lasts from roughly thirteen weeks to six months before you move on, you build relationships with team members and patients to ensure you make a difference in your organization and your patients’ lives.
