Dialysis Technicians

Duties and responsibilities:

        Duties and Responsibilities:

Dialysis Technicians operate machines that remove waste and excess fluids from the bloods of patients whose kidneys can no longer carry out those functions. Dialysis technicians are also referred to as renal dialysis 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 parents’ 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 precautions against infectious diseases such as hepatitis and AIDS.
