DIALYSIS TRAINING CENTERS - LUZON BASED

Many dialysis nurses find their jobs very rewarding because they get to provide treatment for the same patients regularly and follow their care over time.


A dialysis nurse is sometimes referred to as a nephrology nurse, a urology nurse or a renal nurse. Dialysis nurses learn to operate dialysis equipment that filters waste products from a patient’s body when the kidneys can no longer perform this necessary function themselves.

REMINDER: PNA & CCNAPI schedules are different from NC-CLEX main the cost of the courses also varies so it depends where you want to take them =) The author went straight to the source and trained @ Ground Floor KB Arizona Tower 838 P. Campa St. Sampaloc Manila

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Based from experience, the training center holds up to its standards literally they make sure each concept is understood by each student - for the reason that per class there is a limited number of participants to ensure QUALITY training.

Their course offerings are NOTHING like what you have experienced in school - it is the best alternative for RN's who are not working or reviewing for the NCLEX & BSN who have much idle time on their hands - worth your money!

Oh!!! by the way they literally test your skills after each course SITUATIONAL BASED so you will need to learn, understand and show them that you deserve to receive your certificate since they are accredited in the USA =P

TRAINING TIPS:

On the first day, they will provide you with a checklist booklet (Nursing Standards on Intravenous Practice) containing different procedures and the steps needed to implement them.

MEMORIZE all these procedures by heart because on the third day or last day of your training you will have a return demonstration of all these procedures.

Be familiar with the materials that are needed in theses procedures because during the return demonstration, you are going to explain the procedure while you are practically doing every step that is written in the checklist. Example - How can you perform an IV push using the 3 way stop cock with luer-lock if you don't know the function and how that device looks?

On the day of the return demonstration, there are preceptors assigned in every procedure. Each procedure has its own demo area, so you will have the freedom to start your demo at your own choice of procedure and at your own pace.

Remember - don't be nervous. Start with an easy procedure, after finishing a procedure you will gain confidence and you can now move on to the other.

After the training, you still have to complete a number of case in order to have your license. Ask your proctors about the procurement of your license.

Trainings for Nurses in the Philippines with USA Accreditation

Dedicated to Daisy, Luigi & Mercy

This shared information is intended for Philippine based BSN and/or RN

As a Philippine Registered Nurse waiting for my NCLEX eligibility, I at first found it difficult to apply for local hospital jobs here due to the many board passers and the conflict of compensation for nurses in the Philippines.

I managed to research Continued Education for Nursing that initially is provided by the recognized Philippine Nursing Association (PNA) a member of the International Council of Nursesusually held at the National Chapter. http://www.pna-ph.org/mainframe.html. The PNA offers seminars wherein half day would cost 300 for members and 350 for non-members, they also provide trainings where cost would range from 600 to 2500 depending on the number of days and whether you are a member or not. For half day seminars they are usually held on Fridays.


Then I realized with so much time on my hands I wanted to be more productive, instead of just seminars - I wanted RECOGNIZED trainings as my investment for my chosen profession.

SOME trainings nurses should consider * oh * and take note IT IS IMPORTANT WHERE YOU GET THEM ie. recognized by Philippine Based Hospitals and/or Abroad.


1. IV THERAPY
2. BASIC LIFE SUPPORT
3. ADVANCE CARDIAC LIFE SUPPORT
4. INTERMEDIATE IV, ADVNACE IV & PHLEBOTOMY
5. PEDIATRIC ADVANCE LIFE SUPPORT
6. NURSING HOME CARE
7. PHYSICALL ASSESSMENT & DOCUMENTATION
8. RESPIRATORY NURSING
9. TELEMETRY
10. DIALYSIS

The following CONTINUED NURSING EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS provide the above mentioned trainings for BSN and/or RN.

NOTE: THEY DO NOT REQUIRE YOUR PRC CARD - BSN and/or RN can enroll =)
