Here, you will find comprehensive information on the eligibility criteria, documentation, and fees required for endorsement licensure.

Step 2: Gather Documentation

Once you have reviewed the licensing requirements, gather all the necessary documentation. Examples of required documents may include:

1. Completed application form
2. Proof of completion of an approved Dialysis Technician program
3. Current certification from a recognized national certification organization

Step 3: Submitting Your Application

After gathering all the required documents, you can proceed to submit your application for endorsement licensure. Ensure that you have accurately completed the application form and included all necessary attachments.

Step 4: Verification and Background Check

Upon receiving your completed application, the DOH will initiate the verification process. This includes verifying your education, certification, and professional references. Additionally, all healthcare professionals in Washington are subjected to a background check. Any prior disciplinary actions or criminal convictions may affect the licensure process.

Step 5: Exam and Interview

While Washington state does not require a specific examination for Dialysis Technician endorsement, the DOH may require an interview to assess your knowledge and skills in the field. The interview process allows the DOH to evaluate your qualifications and ensure you meet the necessary standards for the endorsement license.

Step 6: License Issuance

Once you have successfully completed all steps of the application process, including the interview (if necessary), the DOH will review your application and make a decision regarding your endorsement licensure.
