A Patient Care Technician, or PCT, is like a super helper in the hospital! They work with nurses and doctors to care for patients differently. They can :
- Check things like temperature, heartbeat, and breathing.
- Help patients move around, get dressed, and eat.
- Collect samples like blood or urine.
- Clean and change bandages.
- Report any changes in a patient's condition to a nurse.
The PCT works under the supervision of the nurse, which means the nurse makes sure they are doing things safely and correctly.
Sometimes, the PCT might also be called a Patient Care Technician / Unit Clerk (PCT / HUC). As HUC, they help with the paperwork and other tasks that keep the hospital running smoothly, which also helps patients get the best care possible!
So, even though PCTs don't wear capes, they are essential members of the healthcare team who help patients feel better and get healthy again!
