Learn the skills that open doors in patient care.
If you’ve ever dreamed of working in healthcare but weren’t sure where to start, a Patient Care Technician (PCT)
program might be the perfect path. At Heart to Heart Career Training Center, our 21-week Hybrid PCT Bundle
combines flexibility, affordability, and hands-on experience to prepare you for success.
What Is a Patient Care Technician?
Patient Care Technicians are essential members of the healthcare team. They work alongside nurses and doctors, assisting with vital signs, EKGs, phlebotomy, and patient comfort.
About the Program
Our PCT Bundle
includes three major certifications:
- Nurse Aide (CNA)
- Phlebotomy Technician
- EKG Technician
Students begin with the Nurse Aide module and then progress through EKG and Phlebotomy, depending on course schedules.
Why Choose the Hybrid Format?
You’ll enjoy the best of both worlds — online learning for flexibility and in-person labs for practical training. This format allows students to balance education with work or family life.
Certification Opportunities
After completing all modules, students are eligible to take the:
- AMCA Patient Care Technician National Exam (PCTC)
- AMCA Phlebotomy and EKG Certification Exams
- Virginia Nurse Aide State Exam (for Nurse Aide graduates)
