Day in the Life of a Cardiac Nurse

- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- I had three great fears coming out of nursing school and passing the NCLEX last year: 1) not knowing how to do anything, 2) not finding a supportive workplace, and 3) not finding a job at all. But I am beyond privileged and grateful that all of these fears were dispelled having found the perfect hospital unit for me. As I celebrate one year as bedside nurse, I finally take you with me to work as a cardiac nurse. I have been wanting to film this video FOR THE LONGEST TIME. Working in a cardiac stepdown unit (specializing in both cardiothoracic/open heart surgery and interventional cardiology procedures), I have seen the most amazing and bewildering things at work. Whether it be caring for post-procedure patients (CABG, valve repairs, TEVAR, ablation, pacemaker placement), scary heart rhythms (A-Fib, V-Tach, heart blocks, Torsades de pointes), diverse heart conditions (CAD, hypertension, heart failure, heart attack, sepsis) TONS of blood (BLEEDING EYES!!!), TONS of poop and pee…I hope you learn with me in this video. Big thanks as well to our amazing physician assistants/PA, nurse practitioners/NP, nurses/RNs, and PCAs/CNAs who chimed in to share their experience on our floor too! And beyond all of these long medical words and jargon...LOVE and SUPPORT. These are the words that truly define my unit. I love my workplace and I am beyond honored to work with the people I work with. I will take them with me in my heart and mind wherever I go. I hope you enjoy this vlog! #RegisteredNurse #Cardiology #CardiacSurgery

A positive video about nursing 😊 I love the end “a new found family outside of home” ❤
Fourth semester nursing student who loves everything cardiac!! Can’t wait for this :). I throughly enjoyed this informative vlog.
Thank you so much! I’m sure you’ll be a great cardiac nurse one day. Keep studying and working wisely and give it all you got. Let me know if you need anything! Take care!
I am a new grad and I will be starting my residency soon. Ill be working at a cardiac-stepdown unit and working nightshifts. Watching your video made me feel more relaxed and excited. I cant wait 😍
Thank you for being so educational with your video and giving us an overview of what type of patients will be assigned to us 🫀🫁
Hi! Thank you so much for watching! And congratulations on finishing nursing school and becoming a nurse. Also congratulations on the cardiac position! I remember when I first started. I was super nervous and anxious! So many things to learn, so many concepts to remember, so many skills to obtain. BUT ask a lot questions, remain excited, always be on time, always ask to do things, be kind, and BE PATIENT WITH YOURSELF. It’s okay to be scared, it’s okay to not know stuff right away, it’s okay for things to repeated until you learn them. You know more than you think you do. I’m super excited for you! Let me know if you need anything. Stay safe! 🫀
How was it in the beginning of your position. I am not sure what to prepare, but i am also going to be working in a cardiac -stepdown. Do i need to learn anything hand. I am doing my residency on the 18th. Did you like the position?
The ending part is so emotional. Thank you for this.
My sister is a nurse too! It’s not an easy job.. hope you get enough rest always.. stay connected! 😊
Thank you so much! Please stay safe and healthy!
Thank you so much for this video!! Im a senior in hs rn (also in NYC!) going to attend a BSN program in the fall. I really appreciate you showing what you do on the job and explaining so thoroughly its hard to find content like this from nurses on yt!! You deserve way more followers and likes. I look forward to your future videos! (and thank you for working during this difficult time!
Hi, Happy New Year! Thank you so much! I am so excited for you. It’s a tough and arduous journey ahead, but super worth it. I hope you get to vlog your future nursing journey as well. Let me know if you have any questions about NYC BSN programs! All the best, future nurse!
Love this! This made me so happy and proud to be a nurse! Thank you for trying to capture what we do :)
Hi, thank you so much! So proud to be a nurse as well. Stay safe and healthy!
Amazing combination between fun vlog and lecture!!! I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm graduating in May this year and hope to get hired on a cardiac floor as well. Good luck with your work and take care :)
Thank you so much Christian for sharing this video with us.
Thank you for watching!
i'm only in my very early teens but I truly love Cardiac nursing and that's what I want to be when i'm older so for now I watch alot of Cardiac nurses on youtube, I look at their experience ,what they do , pros and cons and many more .hopefully I will become a Cardiac nurse in future .Thanks for the informative vlog
I love this I cant wait to go back into cardiac nursing !!!
You covered what to expect as a cardiac nurse so well! I’m on a medical telemetry unit and this video made me look forward to transitioning in the future to PCU. Thank you! 😊
Yahoo! Go cardiac nurses! You'd enjoy the PCU in the future. All the best!
How do you like it!?! I just got a job offer as a new grad to a Cardiac Tele floor!
This video was so informative! I'm in my third semester of nursing school right now and have a cardiac exam coming up and this video really helped tie everything we've been learning together. I also am interested in working on a cardiac floor after graduation, so it was cool to see what kind of things the nurse does during a shift. Thank you for this video and everything that you do! I would love to see more content like this.
Hi Rachel! Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words. Congratulations on almost reaching the end of nursing school! You're doing great and will continue to do so. I know for sure the journey hasn't been entirely easy so far, but you're almost there! I might be biased, but cardiology is the best specialty (haha)! Please update me how your nursing journey goes and when you finally start in a cardiac unit. Let me know if you have any questions! 😃
@@chrsfranz Hi Christian! My nursing school journey is coming to an end. I wanted to update you and share the exciting news that I just applied for an internship on a cardiac telemetry unit! I wanted to wait to share until I got accepted, but it's too exciting!
Rachel! I am so so happy for you! I can only imagine how excited you feel. You will do great. Let me know how it goes!!
Hello from SAI! Nice to meet you! Your vlogs are so cool and informative, and your personality is so warm. I always liked science growing up and I'm so glad you include science facts. ⚕

Hi christian, thank you for the video, it was very informative.

I am sooo late to this but this video is awesome! I had to pause to write my comment. I am a new grad and was offered a position on the cardiac pcu and have been terrified. I am hoping that my coworkers are just as nice and easy to ask questions to as yours are.
Hi Cianna! Thank you for watching and stopping by. Congratulations on the new position! I understand and remember how terrifying and daunting it is, but you know more than you think you do and are capable of doing many things. You got this!! Update me how it goes

A STAR 🌟
It's my dream to work as a nurse in USA
12:15 can u tell how many years doest it to become cardiac nurse after 12th grade please tell me i wanna be a cardiac nurse
Hi , your video is soooo good ! This is the field I want to work in! I’m an RN but I am in school for my BSN , how were you able to get this position and what would your recommend as in your certifications and things that would make you more qualified for this?
Hey there I am new here! I have a question: what is the difference between cardiac nurse vs telemetry nurse? Or are they both the same?
Cutest !
If I ever need open heart surgery, God forbid, I am going to need significantly increased pain control before even thinking about moving out of bed. Picture the walking zombies cities around the country on fentanyl. That’s about the condition I would need to be in. Just the curious thing I’ve been thinking about, and what year in your training do they start, teaching or conditioning use to be desensitized to the pain that you have to cause patients?
I want to be a cardiac nurse im highschool student but Im studying about that coz i really really interested
Hi. Who which hospital you work? If you don’t mind
i want ur autograph
Can I get yours first?
Pinoy ka ba Kuya, nurse din ako 💉
Hi, partly yes! Nice to meet you. Happy New Year!
