Hello have you been to the clinics there and apply for a job before going to that school. alot of the clinics will train you. The pay varies, depending on your experience. but it's a good field to be in, if you love patients an a passionate person. I've been in Dialysis for 8 ys.and I stop working for personal problems, but I'm back to normal an that's by the Grace of God,I've a interview Tuesday.Check online also for location of the clinics, it's wise to go there in person. Keep in touch.God love you.Betty

thanks Betty, praise God for your health improvement...I have apply to davita and another one but they never called me back, i have work as a medical assistant and also have a diploma in the field but it's really hard and they all want you to be certify,im just tired of waiting for jobs to call u, i feel like it's alot better if i went to a school and got certify and that way they have no excuses.lol....but im staying hopeful to God..many thanks again, happy holidays...God Bless you as well
good luck with interview, let me know how it went...

Thank you for your blessings I'll be praying for you as well,that God opens a door for you, and I know he'll because we have a Good God he makes no mistakes just don't worry something will come through. Go online and find the location of some clinics there, and follow-up on them, call them and inquire about the job. Just keep the faith and truth in God, I'll look online here as well, so you live in Atlanta Ga.? I'll forward you some web site to apply send me your E-Mail, do you have a Resume?

I am starting Dialysis school at the end of the month! I am thrilled, I have been in and out of work for the past 2 years as Project Manager. I am 55 yr old and so ready for a new start! What is the job market in the ATL area once I complete school and clinicals? I have a Associates in Art and am told that will be taken into consideration when I sit for the Boards.

It seems kinda hard with the job marketing over here in athens, ga. However, I am gonna continue to keep searching. Congrats on starting Dialysis training. How long is the program?

I haven't had the training yet b/c I'm still doing the research to where i want to attend the dialysis training. However, I have found a school in winder, ga which is 25 minutes away from me and they told me the program is about 12 weeks in class and 4 weeks in the clinical setting. Which. They say the program is about $5,500.

Malik College is 3 grand if you are cash pay. There is also a south in Calhoune GA and it is a mere 1600.00. They are an hour and 15 minute ride one way for me. I know I can't do it unless WIA picks the cost up. I have been in and out of work for over 2 years. Wishing you well.
