shadowing in cardiac and neuro ICU

Published

I am a new graduate currently seeking employment. After two successful interviews, I have been asked to shadow next week for a shift in both the neuro ICU and the cardiac ICU. I want to be as prepared as possible for this experience. Im wondering if anybody has any tips about what things I should go over. Examples of common drugs, procedures, or disease states would be great! Any tips at all are welcome

Congratulations hope you had a good time learning!

Basics i have for my new grad Nurses for starters:

A&P cardiac and pulmonary, CNS system.

Basic ECG

This makes it so much easier to explain the patho of diseases and MOA of drugs in cardiac! Good luck
