Start Your Healthcare Career with DaVita—Where You Can Truly Give Life
At DaVita, we’re not just providing dialysis—we’re building a community of care. We are currently seeking a Patient Care Technician (PCT) for our Tell City, Indiana outpatient dialysis center. If you’re ready to launch a rewarding healthcare career and help improve lives every day, this is your opportunity.

What You’ll Do:
As a PCT, you’ll be a crucial part of a multidisciplinary care team supporting individuals with end-stage renal disease. You’ll receive paid, hands-on training, and once certified, you’ll deliver compassionate, direct care during dialysis treatments. In this role, you will:

  • Spend most of your day providing one-on-one patient care in a clinical setting

  • Monitor patients and record vital signs before, during, and after treatments

  • Set up and operate dialysis machines, ensuring safety and hygiene at all times

  • Educate patients about kidney health and dialysis procedures

  • Support and collaborate with a cross-functional care team that includes nurses, dietitians, and social workers

  • Build long-term relationships with patients who receive treatment three times per week

What to Expect:

  • No previous dialysis experience required—we provide full training

  • You may float to multiple clinics during and after training

  • Flexible scheduling is required—including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays

  • Must be comfortable working around blood and needles and standing for extended periods

  • Shift lengths may exceed 12 hours—our work ends only when patient care is complete

Qualifications:

  • High school diploma or equivalent

  • Passion for caring for others and interest in healthcare

  • Ability to work well in a fast-paced, team-based environment

  • Healthcare experience a plus (e.g., CNA, CMA, phlebotomy, or dialysis certification)

  • Comfortable mixing dialysis solutions (acid/bicarb) and managing equipment

  • Willingness to travel within a territory for training and coverage as needed

Why Join DaVita?
We believe in growing careers and supporting our teammates personally and professionally. As a PCT, you’ll gain access to:

  • Career paths to Facility Administrator, Registered Nurse (via our “Bridge to Your Dreams” tuition assistance program), and more

  • Comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) match

  • Paid time off, PTO cash-out, and parental leave

  • Mental health support, backup care options, and even pet insurance

  • A team-first culture where you’ll always feel like you belong

Location:
1602 Main Street, Tell City, IN 47586, USA
This is a full-time, in-person position.

Be part of a mission that truly gives life. Join DaVita and start your healthcare career with purpose and passion.
