As our Cardiac Telemetry Nurse at CHI St Vincent Infirmary, you’ll care for patients who may have life-threatening cardiac events, post-procedural and receive patients from the Cath Lab PACU while helping their families navigate daily care and the long-term plan for healing and maintenance outside of the hospital.
You’ll never have the same day twice as your patients’ needs evolve. That’s why you must be adaptable and detail-oriented, observing vitals and reporting the warning signs early to our multidisciplinary team of cardiologists, EKG techs, and other cardiovascular professionals.
Your success in this role comes from your enthusiasm to go the extra mile for your patients, utilization of critical thinking skills and your strong assessment skills. To further support your nursing career, we offer continuing education opportunities to help you advance your clinical nursing skills.
