We also see general medical surgical patients that may have a primary cardiac diagnosis / history with co-morbidities that may need telemetry monitoring, as well as those patients needing critical cardiac drips.

On our unit, we train our staff to detect medical issues before they become a problem, so they can respond to those emergent situations quickly and confidently.
