Home Therapy Nursing Careers

Our goal at Fresenius Medical Care is to improve the health and quality of life for each of our patients. Our home therapy nurses play a vital role on the patient care team, providing essential education and support to our patients who choose home dialysis therapy. Home therapy nurses assess each patient to determine their readiness for in-home therapy and provide training to patients and their care partners on self-administering dialysis as home. The home therapy nurse serves as a valuable resource supporting each patient in clinic follow-up visits and in their home.

The home therapy nursing role offers registered nurses an opportunity to make meaningful patient connections as a partner helping each patient reach their health goals. Find a fulfilling career that inspires you; join us at Fresenius Medical Care.

  • Enabling patients to thrive from the comfort of home

    Home dialysis allows patients living with chronic kidney disease more time and flexibility to participate in daily life. In some cases, at home dialysis patients have fewer food restrictions, less medication and more flexible treatment schedules. 

    The home therapy nurse leads the patient and their care partner through a comprehensive training program which lasts about 4-8 weeks. During this time the patient continues to receive treatments in the clinic setting. The home therapy nurse serves as a support resource to prepare patients and their care partners to properly operate the home dialyzer, how to monitor and interpret the dialyzer screen during treatments, how to safely dispose of used supplies and what do and who to call if issues arise during a treatment.

    More About Home Therapy

Q. How is a home therapy nursing role different than home healthcare nursing?

A. Home therapy nurses at Fresenius Medical Care are a vital support resource for patients administering dialysis treatment themselves or with the help of family or other caregivers in their home. They provide critical patient education and safe protocols for avoiding injury and infection and training to patients and their caregivers for proper operation of their in-home dialysis equipment.
