A lot of facilities are phasing out LPN's, so I would try to go the RN route (but apply to both programs-just in case).

There is a forum dedicated specifically to dialysis nursing

you'll need your license to be a dialysis nurse. there are tech that set up the machines and test the water but you wouldn't be doing their treatment, just putting them in their chairs, filling jugs.....it's hard on the back day in and day out. :cry:

Definitely go for your RN. Best of luck.
