Hi Janfrn, thank you! you are wonderful!! What about any specific nursing skills? I figured I might keep updating this thread as I go through my consolidation. Might be useful for other students later on.

Hi all, I will be consolidating at a peds hospital's cardiac intensive care unit. I heard the patients are high acuity and very young. While I have some pediatric experience, I have never had a cardiac patient and don't know a lot about cardiac nursing or critical care in general. I am wondering what topics I should review, or if there are any books (pocket sized even better :)) or any tips that I should keep in mind for this placement? I am hoping to secure a job there after since they do have a really good training/orientation program for new nurses. Thanks!!!
