We manage/ start drips and recover our patients from moderate sedation/ general anesthesia. So we are a PACU in a sense. We pull all our sheaths. We recover generals from cardiac procedures only .. pacemakers, ablations, etc .. we do outpatients and inpatients. We also do bedside tees/ cardioversions. Everyone has to have at least tele experience most of us have PCU some ICU. If the patient is on a pressor or is tanking we do send them straight to ICU if there’s beds, if not we hold them until there’s a bed. It’s just cardiac only so the learning curve would be the different procedures aspect not the ability to recover patients from general anesthesia. I was just curious if anyone had successfully done it or something similar or if trying to recover procedures you’re not use to would be too overwhelming.

I am in a similar situation and wondered if you ever ended up traveling? I am working pre/ post cath lab and would like to travel in the future but don’t see a whole lot of job postings. I was curious if it would be feasible to look for regular pre/ post job postings or if that would be too hard to swing?
