As a Cardiac RN, your daily responsibilities likely include monitoring patients with heart conditions, administering medications and IV therapies, performing cardiac assessments, and interpreting telemetry or EKG data. You’ll collaborate closely with cardiologists, other nurses, and multidisciplinary teams to develop and implement individualized care plans. Cardiac RNs also play a key role in patient education, helping individuals and their families understand treatment regimens and lifestyle modifications.
