Clinical Nurse III- M3: Renal Transplant at Albany Medical Center summary:

As a Clinical Nurse III in Renal Transplant, I manage pre and postoperative care for patients undergoing renal and simultaneous pancreas/kidney transplants. My role involves providing extensive education on self-care measures and administering treatments such as IV therapy and immunosuppressive therapy while caring for patients with acute and chronic conditions. I ensure the protection of sensitive patient information and adhere to confidentiality standards.

Department/Unit:

Renal Transplant- M3

Work Shift:

Night (United States of America)

Manage patients with primary diagnoses include pre and postoperative surgical patients with a focus on the renal transplant patient, simultaneous
pancreas/kidney (SPK) transplant patient, pancreas after kidney (PAK) transplant, patients with
End Stage Renal Disease requiring access for renal replacement therapy, and patients requiring
peritoneal dialysis and/or telemetry monitoring. Although all patients experiencing surgery have
special needs, the renal transplant and SPK patient require extensive education on self-care
measures that are necessary to maintain the health of both the patient and the transplanted graft(s).
This unit also provides care to general medicine and surgical patients.

The general level of acuity is both acute and chronic, with the most common diagnoses including: Renal Transplant, Complications of Renal Transplant, Parathyroidectomy, Simultaneous Renal/Pancreas Transplant, Live Donor Nephrectomy, and Hemodialysis Access. Treatment modalities include, but are not limited to IV therapy, antibiotic therapy, blood and blood products transfusion, sterile dressings, tube feeding, surgical drains, and immunosuppressive therapy for transplant recipients.
