About This Course
The Bachelor of Science in Renal Dialysis Technology (RDT) is a four-year undergraduate program designed to train students in the management and operation of dialysis units, patient care during renal dialysis procedures, and maintenance of dialysis equipment. This course equips students with the essential knowledge and technical skills required to assist nephrologists in treating patients with acute or chronic renal failure.
Learning Objectives
The primary learning objectives of the Renal Dialysis Technology program are to equip students with the knowledge and technical skills required to provide safe and effective dialysis care to patients with kidney failure.
The program focuses on developing proficiency in patient assessment, preparation for dialysis, operation and maintenance of dialysis equipment, and monitoring during treatment. Students gain experience in managing complications related to renal therapy through evidence-based clinical practices.
Emphasis is placed on cultivating critical thinking, clinical decision-making, teamwork, and communication skills—essential for functioning in high-demand dialysis units and healthcare settings.
The course also prepares students to work collaboratively within multidisciplinary healthcare teams and to adapt to the evolving technologies and protocols in renal care.
Facilities
Training in renal diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in dialysis unit and also patients with critically ill with renal insufficiency patients in ICU, water treatment systems, Nephro OPD, peritoneal dialysis training unit, infection control.
Career Pathway
After completing the course in Renal Dialysis Technology, graduates can pursue various career opportunities in nephrology and dialysis care settings. They can work as dialysis technologists, hemodialysis technicians, renal care assistants, or dialysis unit coordinators. Additionally, they may find employment in dialysis centers, nephrology clinics, hospitals, and critical care units that provide renal replacement therapy.
