dialysis tech training

I am curious as to the experienced dialysis RNs thoughts re the training for dialysis techs. FMC does a 12 wk program, what about DaVita? FMC, from what I can tell, does not train in machine problems ie the other day the temp kept going up and up, then down. the techs did not know why. Luckily the biomedical tech was there and able to show the dialysis techs (PCTS) that the machine needed to be taken off the floor as it was probably a sensor problem. My concern is that no one knew this and it could have resulted in the temp of blood being way, way too HIGH. I also am seeing the 'new' techs coming on the floor and just silencing the alarms without looking further to see why. Is this standard throughout FMC? Discouraging for a new nurse in training
