PCT class before nursing school?

Published

I am hopefully going to start a nursing program in the summer. I have completed all of my pre-reqs. My school offers a PCT program, and I'm wondering if I should take that? The other option is that I could take pathophysiology. Neither class is required for my program, but I'm trying to think of something that I could take next semester that would help me when I start nursing. I can't take both at the same time b/c they are offered at the same time of day!!

Pathophysiology is offered in the Nursing program, if you want to take it to gain some solid general knowledge you can. PCT sounds great because it includes EKG and blood drawing which is essential in your nursing career. PCT also offers direct patient contact/care once you find employment for that position. IMO, I would go forward with the PCT 'just-in-case'...
