Job Description

Join Sanford Health, the largest rural health system in the United States,

and become part of a team dedicated to transforming healthcare in America's heartland. We are looking for a Patient Care Technician (PCT) to join our Heart Hospital team in Sioux Falls, SD.

  • This is a part-time, weekday night position. You'll work two 8-hour shifts per week, from 10:00 PM to 6:30 AM, with no weekends and every other holiday off. Scheduled weekly hours are 16, offering a consistent schedule that balances work and life.
  • As a PCT, you'll provide patient-centered nursing care and daily living assistance under the supervision of a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). Your day-to-day will involve recording vital signs, administering basic health care and medical treatments, and helping patients with dressing, bathing, grooming, toileting, meal preparation, dining needs, and laundry. You'll also clean patient living areas and treatment rooms, collect non-invasive biological specimens, prepare and clean medical equipment, dispose of biomedical waste according to standards, and handle clerical tasks related to scheduling and documentation. Strong communication, customer service, multitasking, and organizational skills are essential. When necessary, you'll provide one-on-one care to ensure patient safety.
  • We welcome candidates at various levels of experience. A high school diploma or GED is preferred but not required. Knowledge of healthcare, anatomy, physiology, medical terminology, and medical equipment is a plus. Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certification is preferred. You'll need to obtain and maintain required department-specific competencies and certifications. If working in North Dakota and not a CNA, you must be on the North Dakota Department of Health Nurse Aide Registry within four months of starting.
  • Compensation is competitive, with an hourly rate ranging from $18.00 to $24.00, based on experience and qualifications. This is a non-union position.
  • Sanford Health is an integrated nonprofit health system headquartered in Sioux Falls, with 53,000 employees serving over 2 million patients across the upper Midwest. We operate 56 hospitals, 288 clinics, 147 senior care communities, and nearly 4,000 physicians and advanced practice providers. Our commitment to rural health includes over 1,500 active clinical trials and a virtual care initiative offering access to 78 specialties.
