I currently work in a busy SICU with lots of post CABs and other cardiothoracic surgeries (I've been there for about 2 years). While I have learned a ton and enjoy it, I think I need a change of pace. I'm thinking of transferring to our cath lab (have a meeting with the NM over there later this week). I do plan on spending a day observing in the CCL to get a feel for what it's like, but what are some other things about CCL work to take into consideration before accepting the position? What's a day in the life of CCL like? Is call that bad? Just looking for any and all information on the cath lab, Thanks!
