    I'm graduating in May 2024. Just finished adults2 clinical last week;90 hrs on cardiac telemetry unit, I loved it. Although it seemed like the pts were all there with HF and on the same meds. I might start here as a new grad and eventually get into the CSICU. I also enjoyed the cath lab

    Wow, you don’t know how much I needed this. This was SO informative and I appreciate you so much for this! I start my first nursing residency job on a Cardiac PCU floor in January, and although it’s my speciality, I’m somewhat anxious! Thank you!!! ❤️❤️

    Hello thank you for uploading very informative video I had some quick questions I wanted to ask if u don't mind answering I would really appreciate it 1. Do cardiovascular nurse practitioners work with babies like infants or is that only pediatric cardio nurse practitioner 2. Is the education expensive ? And how much is like the average cost 3. Can nurse practitioners prescribe medicine 4. What degrees are like required for cardio nurse practitioner

    1. They can work with babies IF they are an FNP - family nurse practitioner. If they specialized in adult care, they would not be able to care for kids. 2. Average in-state NP school cost is $35K 3. Yes 4. You would need either your Masters of Science in Nursing or your Doctorate of Nursing Practice and have to pass a board examination. Your NP program MUST have an APRN track and it cannot be a general MSN. I have a general MSN and did not get the extra coursework to become an NP so I cannot work as one.

    Try again in 20 min, then the next step depends on your hospital policy. You may call the medical director, or someone else in their practice.

    Can a LPN work in the cardiac floor?

    This depends on the hospital and whether or not they hire them. Yes, they could but just would be limited the tasks they can complete, but I think the challenge would be finding a hospital that hires them onto units.
