cleveland clinic PCE Pre-Employment

Published

I have been offered a PCNA position at CC main. Has anyone taken the physical capabilities exam with Cleveland clinic? I am a smallish woman who is not super strong but I feel as though I can lift 50lbs. I know the job requires you to be able to lift patients but I also know others help you when needed for patient safety. Do many people fail the PCE and lose the job offer if they aren't exactly super strong? Thank you!

This is the machine they use. Basically you flex and extend both knees and raise and lower both shoulders. It's mostly a pain in the ass, but not many people fail it.

Thank you! I'm sure I'll be fine but I'm nervous as this is sill standing between me and the job.

Hello!

I have been offered a position as a PCNA as well and my PCE test is tomorrow. How did yours go? Did you pass? I'm nervous!
