Telemetry Technician
CurrentAfter two years of being a temporary employee, I was promoted to a telemetry technician for the Acute Care units. During my time as a clerk in the ICU, I became familiar with basic arrhythmia and alarm management which made me a prospective candidate for the position. My essential duties include: observing and interpreting rhythms, monitoring vitals, adequately responding to all alarms, coordinating with physicians and nurses on patient's cardiac condition. This role requires me to have a solid understanding on ECG interpretation as well as some pharmacology as it pertains to the cardiac system.
