"I chose to pursue a career as a Patient Care Technician after seeing my mother go through dialysis treatments before receiving a kidney transplant. I was in awe at how her Patient Care Technician took care of her, and I spent a lot of time talking to him about his job. He mentored me, helped me choose the right career path, and was even at my college graduation. I want to work in this industry to help other families and patients like my mom's Patient Care Technician did for my family."
