dialysis nurse

A dialysis nurse specializes in caring for patients with kidney failure who need help filtering waste and excess fluid from their blood. They monitor patients during dialysis treatments, which use a machine to perform the kidney’s job. The nurse assesses vital signs, manages the treatment process, and watches for any complications. They also provide education on the procedure and ongoing care needs. Their role is essential in ensuring patients receive safe, effective treatment to maintain their health when their kidneys can no longer do so naturally.
