I'm a kidney dialysis nurse with 6 months experience working for a hemodialysis clinic. Would this be considered part of acute care?

Working in a clinic setting is not considered acute care experience, but you have gained some good transferable skills. HD patients can be unstable and you have learned to manage fluctuating blood pressure and develop critical thinking skills. Be sure and emphasize your skills on your resume. Best wishes.
