About DCI
Did you know that some of the industry's most talented and caring registered nurses are at DCI? Our nursing staff has helped DCI achieve the lowest mortality and hospitalization rates among large dialysis providers for the past 13 years in a row. Since opening the first clinic 50 years ago in Nashville, Tenn., our Dialysis Clinic, Inc. family has grown to be the nation's largest nonprofit dialysis provider with more than 270 locations in 30 states, serving nearly 14,000 patients each day.
Our mission is "the care of the patient is our reason for existence." DCI invests in our care teams and funds research to further kidney care and treatment options. We prioritize a holistic approach and offer hemodialysis, home dialysis, and peritoneal dialysis treatment options. We empower patients to live meaningful and productive lives while also delivering high-quality kidney care, saving lives, and reducing hospitalizations.
About the Role
The LPN provides direct patient care under the supervision of the Registered Nurse. This role is designed for those who want to make a difference in patients' lives by helping them live longer and achieve a better quality of life. No dialysis experience is needed; we will train you.
You will be part of a team that believes our nurses are pretty awesome. As an In-Center LPN, you will work a 4-day, 10-hour shift schedule with Sundays off and no overnight shifts. You will receive up to 12 weeks of paid training with a preceptor to ensure you are fully equipped for success.
