thanks to you as well carachel2 for the info, I am trying to get as much info about this field as possible.

hello cardiac rehab, I have a degree in Exersicse & Sport Science, but didn't get certified as an AT, because my passion was stronger in the Nursing field. I am truly interested in this area and would like to combine both my degrees. I would like to know if the ACLS is the personal trainers license? Also is the ACLS needed to become a cardiac rehab nurse? Since you are already in this field would you suggest that I start out in the ICU or CCU before going right into CR? By the way I am still in nursing school. Thank you in advance:)

Ok Travel Nursing sounds like a pretty nice way to go, but I have a couple questions. Can you pick your location and the unit you want to work on ex.(Cardiac Rehab, ICU, or CCU)? Also, how can you find out if your license is approved in another state, will they tell you if it is or not?

Hello Room, I really like this site and that was a really good insight about Cardiac Rehab. I am currently in Nursing School and I believe Cardiac Rehab is where I would like to work. I have a degree in Exersice & Sport Science and I always wanted to combine my degrees. So you are suggesting that I should start out in CCU and Cardiac instead of jumping right into Cardiac Rehab? I just don't think Med Surg is where I want to be when I graduate? Anymore good advice for the future?:)
