Hello ; my character has a Healer's Kit and the Healer feature, from its Hermit background. My I heal my dying friend with 0 hit dice + Proficiency Bonus ? Something like 3 hp at level 5 for example atm. Or do we need at least one hit dice ?
Thanks a lot, adventurers.
Battle Medic. If you have a Healer's Kit, you can expend one use of it and tend to a creature within 5 feet of yourself as a Utilize action. That creature can expend one of its Hit Point Dice, and you then roll that die. The creature regains a number of Hit Points equal to the roll plus your Proficiency Bonus.

No, you can only expend a hit die if you have hit dice to expend. The feat doesn't say you can spend zero hit dice and just get the proficiency bonus, so you can't do that.
That said, you can still use the basic functionality of the Healer's Kit to stabilize a dying creature; that doesn't require spending hit dice.

pronouns: he/she/they
I think I actually would let you heal them for just +PB. It says the creature can spend a Hit Die, not that they must.
