      Hey! Thanks for watching. You can get a pct certification or train on the job to become a patient care tech. If you want to work in hospitals I suggest getting a PCT certification because medical assistants typically don’t get hired at hospitals. I hope this answered your question.

      I know in the hospital I worked at I started out doing transport and applied for a medial assistant I position in the women’s cancer center. I was actually considered for the position but they hired someone else for it. They are willing to train you in the hospital for a medical assistant but you would have to go back to school for like a medical assistant I or II. I actually have an interview this week for a medical assistant position in urology and I applied for a few more that say in consideration. For a medical assistant I you don’t need must experience because they will train you but I happened to have office experience working in radiology and the breast center in the hospital front desk. I’m hoping all goes well
