About the Department:
It is the department that was created for the academic year 2023-2024, which is concerned with graduating specialized medical cadres to work in kidney dialysis units, through which the blood is purified from waste, toxic substances and excess salts using an external device that resembles the human kidney in its working principle.
The Kidney Dialysis Department, known as dialysis, is one of the clinical medical branches that is concerned with training students on how to perform the artificial kidney dialysis process through a special device designed to replace the natural kidney and by using intravenous solutions prepared for the dialysis process in order to remove toxic substances and excess water in addition to dissolved substances from the blood for people who are unable to perform such functions normally, which is often called kidney failure.
Vision:
Graduating highly qualified medical cadres to help kidney failure patients and provide them with health and medical services during their study and practical training, and achieving the highest levels of scientific efficiency for graduates and qualified students to work in hospitals in general and dialysis units in particular.
Mission:
The Department of Dialysis Technology seeks to be the first pioneer in Iraq in graduating qualified medical cadres to work in specialized units of hospitals, namely dialysis units, in order to provide the best high-tech treatment services to serve our beloved governorate and meet the requirements of the current labor market.
Graduate Job Description:
The job description for graduates will grant a technical diploma certificate, and the graduate will be able to perform the following tasks:
