Welcome to Round Rock!!! St. Davids Healthcare, which runs, Round Rock and Georgetown Hospitals, also North Austin has "PCT or patient care technicians". Depending on the staffing situation and openings, they will sometimes hire and train you, as well as Seton Healthcare, which runs the Seton Northwest and a new one opening soon near the outlet mall there in Round Rock. (I'm trying to keep you in Williamson County and avoid the traffic nightmare of commuting to Austin!!!). If these two chains don't have anything, check with the nursing homes in Round Rock, Pflugerville area, they do train and certify you with some strings attached. If you are applying to ACC good luck and don't get discouraged because of the wait list. Get a toll tag for your car!!! LOL Also you might consider Temple College in Temple or Taylor Campuses. You can drive to TC MUCH easier with less traffic and better time that fighting traffic on I-35. Best of luck in your studies!

You might have a chance of getting a job in a long-term health clinic if you have a hard time getting your foot in the door at a hospital. You might want to look into Unit Secretary jobs, too. Best of luck!

I was going to suggest a unit secretary as well. I know some places in the DFW area will hire you for that job if you've had a medical terminology class. If you are waiting to start nursing school you might have a little time to get that class "under your belt". Good luck!
