Default Re: I need some tips...First nursing Job in Telemetry
Funny, I worked somewhere once where they only offered the telemetry class every couple of months; if they were short staffed, which they always were because people kept quitting, they offered it every 9 months. No, I do not work there anymore. Responsible hospitals offer preceptor classes, cover all the important stuff and do not throw people on the floor to learn and then berate them. AMEN

Exclamation Re: I need some tips...First nursing Job in Telemetry
I also just started on a tele floor as a new grad. I am almost done with my first week which is classroom work and then I get 6-8 weeks of orientation with a trained preceptor. If I only got 4 days of orientation I would run fast and far. I hope that there was a miscommunication and you get more orientation. Good luck.
