Medical/Surgical Unit-6W-Extended ObservationThis Extended Observation unit is a fast-paced, 36-bed environment caring for a diverse population of adult and geriatric patients, with occasional adolescent patients due to the hospital’s Level 1 Trauma Center status. The unit combines Med/Surg, remote telemetry, and extended observation care, with patients typically staying 3–4 days and experiencing frequent admissions, discharges, and transitions in care. Patient Care Technicians (PCTs) play an integral role on the team, supporting approximately 10 patients on average while assisting with vital signs, activities of daily living, admissions and discharges, unit secretary responsibilities, and other clerical needs. PCTs work closely alongside nurses to provide coordinated, hands-on patient care in a highly collaborative environment.
