Interview today for a PCT position on Med-Surg

Published

Im so excited and nervous to be getting interviewed for a pct position in a hospital. I have been working as a CNA for a lil over 2yrs now in a veterans home near where I live an cant wait to move on to a job where I can gain more experience and skills. A lot of the med surg pct topics have really helped me see what I can be in for.

In this State compared to othwrs I don't understand why it has such a wider range of skills becauae we can't do any of things back home in Ca unless a nurse. Here we do suctioning, wound care, g-tube feeding, catheters, blood draws and dc We also go on the BON.

It makes no sense why each State is so different?

Your absolutely right. I don't know why its so different either. One day I will actually ask someone who can answer that question for me. We learn and do so much and wen you are with a company for so long you get to learn and do extra skills because you have been there so long. Its crazy but when I find out what I can do I will remember to let you know .

Getting back to you I started sunday. We are able to do vital signs, accu checks, and nursing aid duties. We do hourly rounding. If there is anything extra I am sure to learn about as training continues and learn more and gain the nurses and other aids trust and respect.!
