Procedure preparation : preparing the patient, equipment, and room for the procedure, and ensuring the patient is positioned correctly.
Monitoring : monitoring the patient's vital signs and general well-being throughout the procedure.
Assisting the physician : assisting the physician with the procedure, including preparing and administering medications, monitoring the patient's vital signs, and operating equipment as directed.
Post-procedure care : providing post-procedural care and monitoring, including observation for any adverse reactions or complications, administering medications, and dressing the insertion site.
Documentation : documenting the patient's procedure, vital signs, medications, and any adverse reactions or complications.
The ideal candidate for a cath lab nurse position should have excellent patient care skills, strong attention to detail, and the ability to work well in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment.
In addition, a cath lab nurse should have a current registered nursing license, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree, and experience working in a cath lab setting.
