Dialysis Technician course is in great demand at present to cure people suffering from renal disorders. Thus when kidneys can no longer clean toxins from the blood, a dialysis machine and a dialysis technician to operate it can step in. A dialysis technician works closely with patients, nurses and doctors to make sure that this vital medical equipment runs smoothly. His responsibilities also include checking a patient's chart, administering local anaesthesia and inserting the needle and starting dialysis according to the prescription. During dialysis, the technician checks the anticoagulant and fluid rates and adjusts them accordingly. The patient must be in the proper position and the technician must respond to any alarms or emergencies. After dialysis, the technician disconnects the machine, cleans it and records the patient's vital signs. Thus under the proper direction and guidance of senior technicians, nurses and doctors, a Dialysis Technician play a vital role as part of the dialysis team.  Dialysis Technicians is therefore involved to initiate, monitor, and discontinue dialysis treatments for the renal failure patient.

After successful completion of this intensive 936 hours course, participants will be certified from VIVO Healthcare and will be provided placement in the healthcare sector.
