048: Cardiac Nursing with Georgia Sibley
Cardiac Nursing
Think you have the toughest job in nursing? Cardiac nurses would beg to differ. Dealing with heart patients and their myriad issues takes a special kind of nurse – one who is skilled, knowledgeable, and unflappable.
In this week’s episode of High-Performance Nursing, I have a fascinating conversation with Georgia Sibley, a Clinical Nurse Specialist in Cardiology. Georgia thinks that in order to give the greatest clinical treatment and ensure patient safety, nurses must acquire a thorough awareness of their patients' condition.
According to her, cardiac nursing is not for the faint of heart. It’s a demanding, high-pressure job that requires split-second decision-making. But it’s also incredibly rewarding, as you have the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives – sometimes even saving them.
So if you’re interested in learning more about what it takes to be a successful cardiac nurse, or you’re just curious about the field of cardiology, tune in to this episode!
