The duties may include performing EKGs, and providing a more in-depth assistance to patients as directed by the medical staff.
Students attending training for PCTs will gain a solid foundation in clinical and laboratory practices that will address the broader healthcare needs of patients. The Arizona patient care technician training provides an in-depth knowledge and clinical experiences in areas such as: CNA advanced nursing abilities, phlebotomy skills and performing Electrocardiograms.
In most Arizona patient care technician schools upon graduation students will become duel certified nationally as a Patient Care Technician which is through the National Health career Association (NHA) and as a Cardiographic Technician (CCT) through the Cardiovascular Credentialing International Registry. This enables students to have two different career paths.
