Program Overview
Expand Your Skills. Multiply Your Opportunities.
Our Patient Care Technician (PCT) Program is designed for CNAs and aspiring healthcare professionals who are ready to level up. In just a few months, you’ll earn three critical certifications — Patient Care, EKG, and Phlebotomy — giving you the skills, confidence, and credentials to work in hospitals, dialysis centers, labs, and more.
This isn’t just more training — it’s a strategic move up the healthcare ladder. Many of our graduates use the PCT program as a stepping stone to become LPNs and RNs, gaining college credit, hands-on experience, and industry connections that make nursing school easier, faster, and more affordable.
Whether you’re already a CNA or just getting started, our PCT Program opens the door to higher pay, more job options, and real upward mobility in healthcare.

Program Benefits
Hands-On Clinical Training
Learn by doing, not just by reading. From drawing blood to running EKGs, you’ll practice advanced hospital-based procedures in our labs and during clinical rotations. By graduation, you’ll be confident stepping into a hospital or specialty clinic on day one.
Career Advancement Opportunities
Move beyond nursing homes into hospitals, dialysis centers, and specialty clinics where PCTs are in high demand. This program gives you access to roles with greater responsibility, prestige, and the chance to work closely with doctors and nurses.
Higher Earnings Potential
PCTs typically earn more than CNAs, often several dollars more per hour. That difference can add up to thousands per year - giving you stronger financial stability while you continue advancing your healthcare career.
Stackable Certifications
Training includes phlebotomy, EKG, and advanced patient care procedures. These stackable credentials make you more marketable to employers, open doors to specialized roles, and build momentum toward LPN or RN programs.
