Pros

We are lucky to have a good unit manager who is always trying to look out for her staffs best interest

Cons

They want to pay you crap money but they want you to do the job of 3 people. Always cutting staff and adding more work. Always downgrading benefits to there full time staff. Don't even offer benefits to part time staff. Want great outcomes but don't provide enough staff to enable great outcomes. Patient care is getting less, paperwork more and somebody is going to get hurt! And they promote Ultra Care....what a joke. This is just the company's way of making themselves look like they care about patients when they really don't. We have to pretty much run the patients in and out like cattle!

Pros

Great company to build a long-term career in dialysis. Fresenius offers good medical, dental, and retirement benefits, and there are opportunities for growth if you want to advance your career. One of the biggest advantages is the tuition assistance program for employees pursuing their RN, which makes continuing your education more affordable. The company also provides specialized dialysis training, helping you gain valuable skills and experience in nephrology. If you’re motivated and interested in growing within the organization, there are opportunities to move into leadership or other clinical roles.

Cons

As an LVN, it can sometimes be challenging to balance nursing responsibilities while also performing dialysis technician duties. Your role may vary from day to day—you might be assigned as the LVN one shift and float or work in a technician capacity the next. Because of this, flexibility is essential. Daily assignments can change based on patient census and staffing needs, so being adaptable is important for success in the role.
