monitoring vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen
saturation). Monitor patients for signs of complications such as
arrhythmias, heart failure, or myocardial infarction. Utilize

monitors) to assess heart rhythms, blood pressure, and oxygen
levels. Track changes in patients' conditions and immediately
report significant findings to the healthcare team for timely
interventions. Clinical Care and Procedures : Administer prescribed
medications, including antihypertensives, anticoagulants,
diuretics, and antiarrhythmic drugs, while monitoring for side
effects and therapeutic effectiveness. Assist with diagnostic
procedures such as stress tests, cardiac catheterizations,
echocardiograms, and angioplasty, and provide patient education
related to these procedures. Provide pre- and post-operative care
for patients undergoing cardiovascular surgeries, including
coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), valve replacements, or

monitoring cardiac output, fluid balance, pain management, and
preventing complications such as infection or blood clots. Care

other healthcare providers to develop personalized care plans for
patients with cardiovascular conditions. Adjust care plans based on
patient progress, test results, and changes in clinical status.
Support the patient in managing chronic cardiovascular conditions,
such as heart failure or hypertension, with ongoing education and
lifestyle changes. Patient and Family Education : Educate patients
and families on managing cardiovascular diseases, including heart
disease prevention, dietary modifications, physical activity, and
the importance of medication adherence. Provide instruction on
monitoring for signs of cardiovascular complications, such as chest
pain, shortness of breath, swelling, or dizziness, and when to seek
immediate medical care. Offer support and guidance to patients and
families coping with the emotional aspects of heart disease and
recovery, including stress management and mental health
considerations. Emergency Response and Critical Care : Respond
promptly to cardiovascular emergencies such as arrhythmias, heart
attacks, or cardiac arrest, providing life-saving interventions
including CPR, defibrillation, and advanced cardiac life support
(ACLS). Manage patients experiencing acute cardiovascular
conditions, such as myocardial infarctions or severe arrhythmias,
ensuring timely and effective treatment. Monitor and manage
patients receiving thrombolytic therapy, mechanical circulatory
support, or other advanced cardiac interventions. Coordination of
Care : Coordinate patient care with interdisciplinary healthcare
teams, ensuring comprehensive care through collaboration with
cardiologists, primary care providers, physical therapists,
dietitians, and social workers. Ensure that appropriate diagnostic
tests, treatments, and follow-up care are scheduled and provided.
Assist in arranging referrals for patients needing advanced care,
including heart transplants or specialized cardiology care.

interventions, and outcomes accurately in the electronic medical
record (EMR) according to facility protocols. Report any changes in
patient conditions, including adverse reactions to medications or
complications from treatments, to the medical team promptly. Ensure

and quality improvement initiatives. Quality Improvement and

areas for improvement, and ensuring adherence to evidence-based
