Nephrology nurses are registered nurses who specialize in caring for patients of all ages with kidney-related health issues, which can include patients experiencing a current or future threat of acute or chronic kidney failure. Because many factors can affect kidney health, nephrology nurses work with a wide variety of patient types and there are multiple options to specialize in the field. Nephrology has been recognized as a specialty for more than 35 years and has continually grown in scope. Nephrology nurses make a significantly positive impact on their patients’ quality of life, which makes nephrology nursing a highly rewarding career path.
