Dialysis
technician
Duties and responsibilities:
Dialysis technicians operate machines that remove waste and excess fluid
from the blood of patients whose kidneys can no longer carry out those
functions. Dialysis technicians are also referred to as renal dialysis technicians,
hemodialysis technicians, or nephrology technicians. They work under the supervision of
physicians, primarily in hospitals and clinics.
Dialysis technicians must fully understand the
operation of the kidney dialysis machines. They are responsible for their
operation, cleaning, and sterilization. They must also fully understand their
patients’ needs. Dialysis technicians carefully monitor and record weight and
vital signs before, during, and after the blood cleansing procedures.
Additionally, they instruct patients about in-home treatments. Because dialysis
technicians work with blood, they must exercise strict safety recantations
against infectious disease such as hepatitis and AIDS.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!! XD
