Cardiac Rehab

mchrisrn · May 19, 2006

Hi all, I have an interview for a part time cardiac rehab position next week. It is a job I really want. I have no college degrees, I've been a med-surg nurse who graduated with a RN diploma about 30 yrs ago. I have kept ACLS certification current though I rarely use it b/c my goal is to PREVENT "codes". What would you seasoned cardiac rehab nurses look for in a member of your staff. What would be good to review/learn? The job has been removed from its advertising website so I am afraid they have found someone else. Thank you for any information. Mary
