They collaborate with nurses and doctors to provide personalized care for patients. They can:

Check vital signs, such as temperature, heartbeat, and breathing.

Help patients move around, get dressed, and eat.

Report any changes in a patient's condition to a nurse.

Collect samples like urine.

Perform walks, ADLs, weighing patients, and record vitals.

The PCT works under the supervision of a nurse, who ensures they are performing tasks safely and correctly.

Sometimes, the PCT may also be referred to as a Patient Care Technician/Unit Clerk (PCT/HUC). Like HUC, they assist with the paperwork and other tasks that keep the hospital running smoothly, which also helps patients receive the best care possible.

So, even though PCTs don’t wear capes, they are essential members of the healthcare team who help patients feel better and recover their health.
