Advice on book for new grad on cardiac unit

[Holly27]

Hello! I'm a new LPN grad and will be starting my 1st job in the cardiac unit at the hospital. Im scared out of my mind!!!!!!!! I wanted to get something that I can study, read, or refer to when I start. I have my school books but don't want to refer back to 5 diffirent books when I need more information. Any suggestions would be very helpful!

I'm an ICU nurse and I use Fast Facts for Adult Critical Care. It's a small loose leaf binder...has TONS of info in it...cardiovascular assessments, meds, gtt calculations, neuro assessments, etc. Don't know it that is what you are looking for. You can order online from www.kathywhite.com!

Good luck on your 1st job!!:balloons:
