What do Hemodialysis Registered Nurses do?

Hemodialysis registered nurses provide specialized care to patients with kidney failure, administering treatments like hemodialysis, monitoring patient health, educating them on self-care and dietary needs, coordinating care with other medical professionals, and providing pre- and post-procedure care. 

They operate dialysis machines, manage patient medications, assess and document patient vitals, and provide ongoing support and education to patients and their families.  

What they do

Administering Treatment: Setting up, monitoring, and operating hemodialysis machines to cleanse the patient’s blood. 

Patient Assessment: Evaluating patients’ overall health before and during dialysis, checking vital signs, and assessing the dialysis access site. 

Patient Monitoring: Observing patients for any reactions or side effects during the treatment, making necessary adjustments, and documenting the entire process. 

Patient Education: Providing information on the dialysis process, dietary restrictions, fluid management, and medication adherence to patients and their families. 

Collaboration: Working with physicians, nephrologists, and other healthcare team members to coordinate patient care and report changes in a patient’s condition. 

Medication Management: Administering medications ordered by physicians and monitoring the patient’s response to those medications. 

Documentation: Maintaining detailed records of patient information, vital signs, lab results, and care plans. 

Home Dialysis Support: In some settings, nurses train patients on home dialysis, provide initial setup guidance, and offer ongoing support. 

Environment

In-Home Programs: Offering personalized dialysis care and support in a patient’s home environment.
