Dialysis Technician
CCHT
A federal 18-month certification clock, built in.
Federal rules (42 CFR §494) require patient-care dialysis technicians to be certified within 18 months of hire, after an RN-directed training program and supervised clinical experience. That mandatory countdown plus a skills checklist and RN sign-off make it a natural, if specialized, vertical.
