Your success in this role comes from your genuine desire to help patients feel better, whether that means giving them fresh bed linens or checking their vitals. You're diligent about your tasks, observant of patients' conditions improving or declining, and accept coaching well. You know we're all continuously trying to become better care providers, and you're eager to learn.

• Check-in with the outgoing patient care techs at the beginning of your shift to get a report on your patients.
• Conduct hourly rounds on patients, checking vitals, maintaining whiteboard information, and assisting with care as needed.
• Assist patients with ambulating as necessary. This may mean helping them reach a recliner in their room, walk to the bathroom, or down the hall. Assist released patients in getting safely to their vehicles outside.
• Assist patients with hygiene needs. This can include a full bed bath, an assisted bed bath, or retrieving towels and soap for ambulatory patients.
• Help the nurse with tube insertions such as an NG tube, rectal tube, or catheter. You may be holding a cup of water, holding the patient or providing the nurse with supplies as needed, and cleaning up after.
• Change bed linens, check patients' weight, other tasks as assigned each day.

If you are committed to social justice, health equity, and prepared to deliver care in new, innovative ways, you belong with us.
