Published

Hello all! :) I am thinking of transferring to the Cardiac Rehab Dept. I have always wanted to work in cardiac and I am excellent at communications and education. I am also a heart pat. and nurse myself! :p

Can someone tell me what it is like working as a RN in the Cardiac Rehab. dept.?? I think I have an idea, but just wanted to get some feeback!

Thank you kindly! :nurse: :redpinkhe

For me working in a cardio department is really a tough job because you have to be familiar with all of the cardio gadgets like pacemaker, portable Ecg and other beeping devices thus, you must be able to figure it out if it's malfunctioning or working just right (These are my weakness).

One thing for sure the floor is always toxic and busy :grn:
