  • Postgraduate qualification in Renal Nursing (essential).

  • Strong experience working with haemodialysis patients in a clinical setting.

  • Confident in clinical decision-making, nurse prescribing, and working independently.

  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and organisational skills.

  • Fully eligible to work in Ireland.

Key Attributes:
  • Patient-first approach with strong clinical leadership.

  • Committed to continuous improvement and evidence-based practice.

  • Strong analytical skills and attention to detail in audit and reporting.
