Newly hire for Phoenix Children's Hospital (CNA)

Congrats fellow coworker! Yes anyone can wear any scrubs they want. You can even wear PCH logo tshirts. The only department to go to a uniform is the ED.As for that floor you have many wonderful nurses, and fellow techs. With that said get ready...GI patients and families and doctors are very needy to say the least. GI patients are time consuming and sometimes confuse the hospital for a hotel. I promise its a common thought among coworkers. As for tuition , they do offer it and its GREAT. For fulltime they offer 5300 a year, you just have to pass with a C or higher. Part time is like 3k or so, I am not positive on it. You just have to have the required documentation in five days before the start of class ( and they are strict on that). I added you as a friend, so we can talk more. I was a PCT with staffing for a long time, and recently transferred to the ER out to the urgent care, but i still pick up PCT shifts at the main campus. You will love PCH, many great coworkers, kids are great and the benefits are pretty good too.

You guys are the best! I was a heart patient at PCH and everyone from Nurses to NPs to PAs to Doctors to CNAs etc were so so compassionate and caring. I also noticed that their scrubs were all sorts of colors and patterns. My nurse wore a very punny heart-related t shirt ("We've got the beat"), which I thought was hilarious. edna, you're gonna love it there :)

Hi Liz_Love21 i hope you are working as a PCT at PCH now. Sorry i am responding so late. hopefully you read this. I applied randomly one night and i was offered the night shift but i declined since i was attending school and they called me back offering me day shift the following day. I been told it is super hard to get in but i think you are on the right track with volunteering, it is definitely a foot in the door:) good luck. let me know if any luck...

Hi Guys! Anyone know what color scrubs do Nurses, CNA/Techs wear in the ED? I am considering a job there and just wondering if my current scrub color would work! :)
