| [ Summary ] | Serious illnesses, related to elderly dialysis patients have been increasing, and ages, and it is turning in for a long period of time. The public image of dialysis nurses has also been changing. The current severe medical economic situation has required that "the height of the productivity" be demanded of dialysis nurses. In such a situation, we must expect dialysis nurses to have a high degree of special knowledge of the technology necessary to cope with a wide variety of situations. Education of individual nurses in all hospitals and clinics is indispensable in the creation of highly trained workers. This education will also lead to the development of an "the authorized nursing system" nation wide. National medical standards require the development of a uniform dialysis nurse training program. Some of the educational programs necessary to achieve this goal are discussed. It is hoped these ideas will be an aid in achieving these educational needs. |
