Pct Maternity information

What is a patient care technician (PCT) in maternity?

PCTs, or Patient Care Technicians, in maternity care are healthcare professionals who assist nurses and doctors in providing care to pregnant women, new mothers, and their babies. Their duties typically include monitoring vital signs, helping with hygiene, providing emotional support, and ensuring patient comfort during labor and postpartum recovery. PCTs play a crucial role in supporting both the medical staff and patients, making sure the maternity unit runs smoothly and efficiently.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a patient care technician (PCT) in maternity?

To thrive as a PCT in Maternity, you need a solid understanding of basic patient care, vital sign monitoring, and maternal-newborn health, typically supported by a high school diploma and a PCT or CNA certification. Familiarity with hospital information systems, electronic medical records (EMRs), and basic medical equipment is commonly required. Compassion, teamwork, and strong communication are essential soft skills for supporting mothers, newborns, and the healthcare team. These skills ensure safe, attentive care and a positive patient experience during the sensitive maternity period.

What are some common challenges patient care technicians (PCTs) face in a maternity unit, and how can they prepare for them?

Patient Care Technicians (PCTs) in maternity units often encounter fast-paced and emotionally charged environments, with responsibilities ranging from assisting nurses and supporting new mothers to monitoring newborns. Common challenges include adapting quickly to changing patient needs, handling sensitive family situations, and maintaining clear communication with nurses, doctors, and family members. To prepare, PCTs should focus on developing strong multitasking skills, emotional resilience, and familiarity with maternity-specific procedures. Participating in ongoing training and seeking mentorship from experienced colleagues can also help new PCTs navigate these challenges effectively.

No On Call

Dialysis Experience Required

Must have a Current CCHT


Approximately 10% of all dialysis patients reside in a SNF and are transported to dialysis three times a week placing a significant burden on patients and adding significant avoidable costs to the health care system. DSD Services teammates will have access to all the capabilities and resources DaVita has to offer.


The CCHT must be willing to support other DaVita SNF Dialysis dens if needed. The local DaVita SNF dens are located at Plaza in Scottsdale, Sky Harbor in Phoenix, Resolve in Phoenix and Palm Valley in Goodyear. We are also on-site at Haven in Tucson.


What you can expect:

In this role, you take responsibility for the complete ongoing care of each patient to ensure their dialysis treatment stays on track. PCTs will work in conjunction with dialysis RNs to provide dialysis care.

Patient Care: Spending the majority of your day in direct one-on-one patient care to provide safe, comfortable and hygienic dialysis treatment.

Complexity: DSD Dialysis care is a complex but fulfilling service line. Meeting and/or exceeding clinical outcomes are the goals and multitasking is an expectation to meet the needs of the service, the patients and our SNF partners.

Autonomy and Critical Thinking: Provide comprehensive patient care in an independent setting. Plan to be on your toes at all times. You use your mind constantly. You apply your "core" skills to monitor patients before, during and after dialysis treatment including measuring and recording stats, patient observations, and hemodialysis machine setup. There's a lot to track and manage and the joy comes in witnessing how your care impacts patients' lives.

Some details about this position:

  • Your training will include a combination of classroom and hands-on learning, through DaVita’s award-winning training programs
  • May be asked to support other local SNF dens
