New nursing Instagram is @CharliFromPeds ✨💕

Thankyou so much for this video! I've done CNA work since 2002 and I swear I can do it with my eyes close. I start my night shift PCT position in the hospital (for the 1st time) next month & I'm sooooooo nervous about it lol. I can't wait to get past that awkward nervous stage that I know I'll experience in the beginning and get to the point where I can clock in and know exactly how to maneuver through my shift

Love this! You go above and beyond!

Yes I LOVE YOUR energy and how happy and excited you are about your job

Super informative video! I love how excited you are throughout the whole vid. Would love a what's in my work bag video =)

Charli ! what a great walk-through! I've been a home care PCA and now starting in the hospital setting. And the video helped so much! thank you.

💛 this was super helpful! Thank you so much! I’m starting a new PCT job at my local hospital and I’m super nervous! I wasn’t too sure how the schedule would work but this makes it seem a little bit easier! I love your energy ❤️

I’m excited to start my PCT job at my hospital ! This video makes me very excited 😆

Aren’t you a ray of ☀️!!! Thank you for your service!!!!! My cousins were in Arizona In the Airforce. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

Thank you so much for your info. I want to be a PCT . You inspire me . Thank you .

I am so happy I came upon this video. it is really informative and I am definitely taking notes to use when I get my job as a first time Patient Care Technician

This is literally the most informative video I’ve seen for a PCT/CNA in the hospital. Thanks!

This is the first video that I watched on your channel and I loved it. I will start to work as a PTA the next month, September 2020, I fell so nerves because it's a new experience and a new big challenge but I am prepared for the new step. Thanks for sharing your experience, you are very sweet and funny.

I’ve been a CNA since 2016 but I’ve only ever worked in nursing homes with the elderly, this will be my first time being in a hospital so I’m glad to see that not much is different from working in a nursing home. This was very informative.

Lady God bless you. You sound like that you don't only love your job you truly care about your patients.

Awesome video, very informative and detailed! Thank you!

I'm in CNA school and just got hired on in the PCU to start right after school. I ran across your video looking for how the floors kind of run. Thank you for this video! It gave me a lot of insight!

Im in Alabama prior military and pursuing my RN degree. So glad i found your channel

I thought about taking a PCT class at the local community college and wow it was almost $ 3k. So I searched YT to get a better idea of what to expect and found your video. This video is very informative! Thank you for creating it!

💛 this was super helpful! Thank you

I started my position as a PCT a couple weeks Ago but I’m not there right now (I’m pregnant) and i love it ! It’s a lot to take in when you first start coming from a doctors office (psychiatric) to a trauma acute care floor (PCT) and it was nerve wrecking learning how to chart on the system we use but I love being A PCT ❤️😫

I never realized how different the scope of practice is for pct from facility and states as well. In nyc a Cna or Pca is different from a pct and then at the same time there are some facilities here that use the term nursing attendants for pcts 😂😂 as a pct in ny state you are trained as a nursing assistant, phlebotomist and ekg/ecg tech. I’m starting my program this fall, originally was supposed to be in the summer but since schools were closed 🤷🏻‍♀️ These videos you make are the most informative I’ve found on KZfaq. I think you are going to be an amazing nurse you are genuinely such a breath of fresh air !!

This is so helpful! I was just hired as a nurses tech at my local hospital and I am so excited! I will also be working 12/hr full time nights, just 7:00pm-7:30am. This video really made me less anxious and more excited, it's my first hospital job!

Thank you so much for posting these videos! You've been such a huge help for me through the whole process of interviewing and orientation. You calm me down a lot! 🙏 I'll be in the hospital working next week!

I just discovered your flight attendant videos last week, and today on my youtube feed your PCT videos popped up! Im an LPN and hope to one day become a flight attendant while working PRN as a nurse. I love all your content

im so happy you said your from Alabama i am too from Birmingham and i start PCT in about two weeks

💛 thanks for this video. Very informative. I've been thinking of working in the hospital.

Your positivity and energy is infectious! My dream is to work either in labor & delivery or with pediatric patients. I’ve also been thinking about oncology. Thank you for this informative video! 💗

i’m a PCT as well!! you have the prettiest smile🥰

I just got a PCT job today & im Army national guard as well. We have something’s in common. I got my CNA certifications 2 years ago & never used it, so this is my first hospital job. Im super excited, your video is super helpful💛

Very good imfo where I'm from certified nurse assistant go to training for about 6 weeks where patient care techs go for 8 months and we also do EKG and phlebotomy and trach care

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!! N FOR THE VIDEO ALSO..

🌼 Very detailed and informative!!!

Love this vid very informative!

💛your vlogs are awesome. I'm a new PCA and your way will help me to be a bit more organized during my 12 hour night shifts. Thanks for sharing. 🙏 This video is a great guide for me to follow for sure.

Thanks for this, Charli 💛 This was awesome 👏

I have a PCT interview tomorrow. I really want this job because I think it will help me on my nursing journey. This video made me feel a lot less nervous!!

💛💛💛 this helped me so much I just got my CNA

Please do a video on interview questions and tips! 💛

Great video!! I’m nursing school and debating to find a job as a PCT.

Have 32 years in ltc, took the plunge and got a job in ICU in Western Nebraska. Never have worked acute care setting ever. Really nervous, but am looking forward to the challenge!

I just applied for multiple positions at a hospital near me and I was nervous thinking it would be entirely different..this makes me feel better😇

I’m a brand new PCT and I was in the second group to learn how to take out a catheter and draw blood we’re not allowed to put them in but we can take out catheter to draw blood to take out IVs and everyone else in the hospital that doesn’t know how to do it that are PCT’s and that kind of stuff are going to learn how to do it we are finally learning how to do it I work with Ascension St. Vincent’s and I’m very happy about it

Really appriciate for sharing your experience. I have my first day unit orientation today. Kinda nervous. This is my first Job in America. Your videos helps me a lot. God bless!

I purposely had to come back and comment just to say thank you! I went thru school got hired at Missouri Baptist Hospital and my first day is Monday! I also use epic etc I’m on the general medicine and renal floor. Thank you so much I’ve watched all your videos and you where super helpful! Thanks so much boo 💕 My shift is 6:45 am to 7:15 pm so pray for me with that but I’m super excited to work only three days a week!

Thank you for the infooooo!!!! ❤❤❤❤

I'm starting a PCA job next month on med/surg. I'm excited, but a little nervous. They're putting me through a three day orientation since I have my CNA.

Just caught on to your F/A videos and have gone back in time with your PCT videos thanks to that KZfaq algorithm that knows best of what to suggest I view! LOL! . As a nurse in Canada I can't believe how much help you would be on a night shift as a PCT. Is there anything left for the nurse to do? or is it a staffing model where one nurse takes the floor of 45 patients with the assistance of 3 PCTs? I thought from your F/A videos that you had your nursing degree? Perhaps you have already sampled what it is like to be an RN which made you flee to aviation?...Was your interview with the big "D" impressed with your healthcare experience you had and how that would benefit the passengers on a flight? Great videos BTW... wonderful stage presence!

💛 Great Info! Thanks!!

i have been religiously watching your videos to make my decision on nursing school and i think you’ve convinced me to try out the PCT program at my community college, so thank you for all of your hard work and amazing information! ❤️

In New York state a PCT is like a LPN in the hospital. We can draw blood pass medication. Apply dressing to wound's as well as keep the room clean.

I've worked in a SNF, and it was meh 😕 but I caught on pretty good. However some of the workers I worked with were: messy and miserable (not all but most). Thank you for this review about the PCT's in the hospitals.💛💛💛💛

I have been working as a CNA in a long term facility. Within a couple of weeks I will begin my maiden experience as a PCT. I must say your video will be helpful on my job.

Awesome video! Just a question has things changed, with Covid being around? Or you don't get covid patients?

Thank you so much you’re a great help💛

Very informative thank you!

💛 Great info!

Thanks for the video. I have a question on how to organize taking notes for the day, on each patient, so you can report it to the next PCT?

I love your video so now its Patient Care tech.instead of CNA.cool.😀💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

🌻 hello @CharliFromPeds new subscriber ! Very detailed and informative video plus I'm PCT as well

💛 so I’ve been applying and hope to get the job soon

Just wondering while in nursing school do you do 12 hour night shifts 3 days a week still? Im in nursing school and I want to be a pct but i have to work full time to support myself. Just scared i'll struggle in school

I do the same thing at Providence.Im actually going up to becoming a lead.

I want to try this, I’m a CNA in a nursing home 🏡

I'm a MA just got offered PCT position I never done before. It's something new so I'm worried lol. Thank you!

omg so crazy im thinking of applying for a PCT position and I'm from Alabama as well!

Thank you so much @Charli for such an informative video... 🌼🌼

I just completed my masters degree in Healthcare Management, but I have no experience and finding a job in healthcare is hard when you are not a clinician. I want to get my degrees worth so I do not know if this is a good idea... Would you recommend this position as a starter or should I just keep looking for something more?

Was gonna take the class but I will pass… Im in school to become a Certified Coding Specialist, and I know I won’t have the stomach for this kind of job but I applaud all who can do it❤️💯🙏🏾💯

I'm in nursing school about to start as a pct was an emt and I'm in the U.S. Army

Hello Charlie, hope u good ? Pls I would like some informations concerning the Patient Care Technician Trainning. What are the requirements pls ? Knowing I have a French high school degree in technical health and social science. Thanks hope to hear from u 😊😊

Thanks very informative! 🙏🏼💕✝️

More videos on PCT!!! An do you know the difference between PCT2,3

I am a PCT with just the certificate. I am not state certified as of yet. I'm currently in nursing school but it seems so difficult to get hired in a hospital without having any former medical experience. How is it going with Covid? Stay safe.

Wow lots of work

Hi so I am currently going to be starting my classes do the teach you how to properly insert the needles and stuff like that because I am super nervous about that

Thanks for Sharing

I just got hired as a PCT and I’m scared af. Excuse my language. My sister is an RN and my other sister also works at that same hospital. They both scared the 💩 out of me.

How long is the class or the class you took for the pct? I know its different from Alabama im in Virginia.

Awesome

💛💛💛

Thankyou ♥️

thank you

So PCT is the same thing as a CNA? So if I wanted to apply for this job I would need to take a cna class? I have a PCA certificate already.. but that's probably not the same as the pct though 🤔

Because of your video I applied for a pct job and got it! I start the 14th. They are paying for school also. Thanks for your videos❤️

Yes it was helpful

1/3 of the way In It doesn’t seem that bad. I goal right now Is the be a PCT.

Hello I start pct on Monday . First time working in hospital.....I’m nervous

Hello! I love your videos! Is this the same job as a “nurse tech/secretary”? I am applying for the position I quoted above in a labor and delivery department of a hospital. Is that roughly similar? Thanks!

💛

imma work night shift weekends!

Thank you for you service serving our country. What part of Alabama are you in?

💛💛

Do you prefer day shifts or night as a PCT? You’re very pretty 😊

Ok now I understand

✨

It also stands for post cycle therapy lol

👑

Do you write vitals down then chart later or chart as you go from room to room?

🧡
