If you are a compassionate person who loves helping others, consider becoming a patient care technician! Patient care technicians are responsible for caring for and monitoring others who cannot care for themselves. During a hospital stay or medical visit, PCTs are the support personnel to a patient; they assist patients in walking, dressing, bathing, feeding, cleaning, and more. PCTs work under the supervision of healthcare professionals. Patient care technicians understand their patient’s concerns by being empathetic and attentive. PCTs are informed of client cases. They must effectively convey issues, concerns, and updates, to colleagues, and supervisors. PCTs main responsibility is patient comfort. To become a Patient Care Tech, professional training is required! If you are near Florida, explore the CompuMed Vocational patient care technician training program.
