Dialysis Technician:
The Dialysis P.C. Technician (DPCT) program develops interpersonal,
communication, and basic clinical skills required for the care of patients with
acute / chronic renal disease undergoing dialysis treatment at a dialysis
facility or hospital. This comprehensive program will prepare the student to
safely operate kidney dialysis equipment and machines. As part of an integral
team, the DPCT is involved in the direct care of the patient before, during, and
after their kidney dialysis procedure; the DPCT operates, monitors, and
disinfects, kidney dialysis equipment and machines observing facility policies
and procedures and Federal and State Regulations. Students will perform direct
patient care skills including observation, education, taking vitals, injections,
blood draws, ECG’s, and will also monitor patient comfort and safety. Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid require a dialysis technician to become certified
within 18 months of employment in the field of dialysis. Graduates of this
program may challenge the National Certified Clinical Hemodialysis Technician
exam. The Dialysis P.C. Technician program contains 1,140 clock hours.
