Become familiar with your cardiac meds. All your Beta Blockers, Ca Channel Blocking agents, ACEi, anti arrythmics and so forth. If you can, use a day of orientation to sit and work with your monitor tech, you'll learn lots. Just remember to take your time, ask questions and never be hard on your self. Your gonna love it!
