The American Association of Psychiatric Technicians (AAPT) is a nonprofit organization that administers a voluntary national certification exam to test the knowledge of psychiatric technology. They raise the quality of mental health care nationwide by training and certifying psychiatric technicians and assisting in establishing training program curriculum. Psychiatric Technicians, under the umbrella of AAPT, provide care and training for clients with mental disorders and developmental disabilities. They work in hospitals, group homes, and state mental hospitals, performing duties such as monitoring patient behavior, vital signs, and assisting with basic needs. Voluntary certification as a Psychiatric Technician allows individuals to gain recognition as para-professionals and potentially receive better pay and promotional opportunities.Generated from the website
