Patient Care Technician DSD
Deanwood Rehab and Wellness Center: 5000 Nannie Helen Burroughs Ave NE, Washington, DC 20019
3 Days A Week, 12+ Hour Shifts
No On Call
Dialysis Experience/CCHT Required
DaVita Kidney Care is bringing our industry-leading clinical quality to patients on-site at skilled nursing facilities (SNF) through a new team called DaVita Skilled Nursing Dialysis Services. Approximately 10% of all dialysis patients reside in a SNF and are transported to dialysis three times a week, placing a significant burden on patients and adding significant avoidable costs to the health care system. DSD Services teammates will have access to all the capabilities and resources DaVita has to offer and will work to quickly leverage these to develop the infrastructure and rapidly grow the new service line. Ideal teammates will have significant experience within DaVita, get energized by a start-up type environment and improving the lives of patients, and have a track record of finding ways to GSD. Teammates must be comfortable working autonomously and have demonstrated the ability to collaborate with cross-functional resources across the Village.
What you can expect:
In this role, you take responsibility for the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure their dialysis treatment stays on track. PCTs will work in conjunction with dialysis RNs to provide dialysis care. You will work 3 days a week - with no required on call, yet your impact on the lives of our patients and their families will be felt every day.
Patient Care: Spending the majority of your day in direct one-on-one patient care to provide safe, comfortable and hygienic dialysis treatment.
Complexity: DSD Dialysis care is a complex but fulfilling service line. Meeting and/or exceeding clinical outcomes are the goals and multitasking is an expectation to meet the needs of the service, the patients and our SNF partners.
Autonomy and Critical Thinking: Provide comprehensive patient care in an independent setting. Plan to be on your toes at all times. You use your mind constantly. You apply your "core" skills to monitor patients before, during and after dialysis treatment including measuring and recording stats, patient observations, and hemodialysis machine setup. There's a lot to track and manage and the joy comes in witnessing how your care impacts patients' lives.
Some details about this position:

You must have:
- Prior Hemo-Dialysis experience
- High school diploma or equivalent
- Valid Certified Clinical Hemodialysis Technician (CCHT) certification
- Basic computer skills and proficiency in MS Word and Outlook
You might also have (a.k.a. nice-to-haves):
- Training/Teaching/Healthcare Education background
What We’ll Provide:
More than just pay, our DaVita Rewards package connects teammates to what matters most including:
- Comprehensive benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match, paid time off, PTO cash out
- Support for you and your family: family resources, EAP counseling sessions, access Headspace®, backup child and elder care, maternity/paternity leave and more

Search Technician Jobs in Washington DCTechnician Jobs in Washington DC: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for technicians in Washington DC?
Defense and government IT contractors are among the most active sponsors for technicians in DC. Companies like Leidos, SAIC, ManTech, and Booz Allen Hamilton hire technicians in IT support, systems, and network roles. The Smithsonian Institution and several university research labs also sponsor for lab and facilities technicians. Sponsorship is more common in commercial-facing roles than those requiring active security clearances.
Which visa types are most common for technician roles in Washington DC?
The H-1B visa is the most common visa for technicians in specialty occupation roles, such as electronics, IT systems, or biomedical equipment. The H-1B requires a bachelor's degree in a field directly related to the role. Some employers also use the TN visa for Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying technician categories. O-1 visas occasionally apply for technicians with documented exceptional expertise.
How to find technician visa sponsorship jobs in Washington DC?
Migrate Mate filters job listings specifically by visa sponsorship willingness, making it straightforward to find technician roles in Washington DC where employers are open to sponsoring. You can search by job category and location to surface positions at federal contractors, research institutions, and commercial employers in the DC metro area without having to guess which companies sponsor from a general job listing.
Which cities in Washington DC have the most technician sponsorship jobs?
Washington DC itself is the primary hub, but the metro area extends into Northern Virginia and suburban Maryland, where many federal contractors and tech firms are headquartered. Areas like Arlington, McLean, Bethesda, and Silver Spring host significant concentrations of employers who hire technicians. Many sponsorship-eligible technician roles are distributed across these suburbs rather than inside DC proper.
Are there any DC-specific considerations for technician visa sponsorship?
Security clearance requirements are a significant factor unique to the DC market. Many technician roles tied to federal contracts require a U.S. security clearance, which is generally unavailable to foreign nationals on temporary work visas. This narrows the pool of sponsorship-eligible roles, so focusing on commercial, nonprofit, and civilian research employers in the metro area is more productive for international candidates.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored technician jobs in Washington DC?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
