Dialysis

Hello, I'm Latife Munar. I am a student of the University of Health Sciences, Hamidiye Health Services Vocational School, Dialysis Program. Dialysis is the process of connecting patients who have lost their kidney function to a machine that takes on the functions of the kidney. The task of dialysis technicians here is to connect the patient to that machine and then ensure his well-being. We mainly deal with elderly patients, so our program training requires us to be compassionate. In our program, in addition to field courses such as Anatomy and Medical Terminology, courses such as Turkish Language, Atatürk's Principles and Revolutions are offered. In our program, we perform our laboratory practices mostly at hospital units. In the spring semester of the 1st grade of the Dialysis Program, we go to the hospital for practice once a week. Since the University of Health Sciences is a very well connected university in terms of hospitals and the many training and research hospitals, we can easily apply for internships. After graduation, we can work in many fields in our hospitals, which have dialysis centers and dialysis units, and in the health community. I was a graduate of a vocational high school of health, and the main reason for me to choose this program was to serve the elderly. The biggest reason why I chose the University of Health Sciences was the internship opportunities it offered that would help me to develop my skills. In addition, the location and accessibility of my university were among the reasons that affected my choice. I want to work in a dialysis center when I graduate. To the candidates who will choose our university and program, I recommend them to work in a disciplined manner and to take advantage of the opportunities offered by our school. I also think students should focus on their internships. I wish success to the students who will take the exam. We will be happy to see you with us.
