I have extensive experience with cardiac monitoring, having worked in a cardiac unit for the past three years. I am proficient in interpreting EKG results, identifying arrhythmias, and responding to changes in patient status. My training includes advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) certification, which has equipped me with the skills to manage acute cardiac events effectively.

I prioritize tasks based on patient acuity and the immediacy of their needs. I use a triage system to assess and address the most critical issues first, ensuring that all patients receive timely care. I also maintain clear communication with my team to delegate tasks efficiently and ensure that no patient is neglected.

I manage stress by staying organized and maintaining a calm demeanor. I prioritize tasks, take short breaks when needed, and rely on my team for support. I also practice mindfulness techniques, such as deep breathing and positive self-talk, to stay focused and composed during high-pressure situations.

In one instance, I worked with a team of cardiologists, pharmacists, and physical therapists to manage a patient with severe heart failure. We coordinated care plans, shared patient data, and adjusted treatments based on each other's expertise. This collaborative approach led to a significant improvement in the patient's condition and their ability to manage their condition at home.

I stay updated by regularly attending continuing education courses, participating in professional organizations, and reading current literature in cardiology and nursing. I also engage in online forums and webinars to learn from experts in the field. This ongoing education ensures that I can provide the most up-to-date care to my patients.
