On the other hand, the Cathlab and Cardiac Diagnostics run weekday lists of stress echocardiograms, nuclear MPS, diagnostic coronary angiograms, left and right heart catheterisation, electrophysiology studies with ablation, and implantation of simple and complex cardiac devices. Here, nurses get to scrub and circulate for the procedures and practice their cannulation and venepuncture skills. They also hone their non-technical skills such as communication, teamwork and time management, which are all important in getting all the procedures done in a safe and timely manner.Since staff joining the team will be growing in all these different areas, they are well-supported with an experienced sister/charge nurse every shift who are always keen to help. They will also have dedicated experienced mentors, guiding them in a carefully planned personalised learning and development pathway. The managers also organise regular in-house study days and proactively encourage professional development through the cardiac care pathway at the University of Brighton where you can earn a degree in Acute Clinical Practice. Moreover, cardiology nurses enjoy a closer relationship with the multidisciplinary team as they regularly work in proximity to attend to patients complex needs. Finally, the team has ties with Frimley Park, St. Georges, Royal Brompton and Barts Hospitals in the event that a patient needs a tertiary level of care.
