I, as most of you know, am only an EMT-Basic. However, my job (yes! I got the job at the hospital!) requires me to go thru a self-study on arrythmia identification. Once I am off orientation, I will be monitering up to 28 EKG's, with my other duties. I must gain proficiency in arrythmia identification to get off orientation. Any, and all advice, especially pertaining to publications or training manuals from those of you that are I's or P's...would be tremendously helpful. Right now I am titled as a part-time unit secretary/monitor tech on the cardiac services floor, but will eventually move to full time. There is also discussion of putting me thru the hospital's OJT phlebotomy, so they can float me as a health tech in the future. For those of you that know arrythmia identification...is it hard to learn? Thanks all, I have found this EMT group to be supportive, informative.....an all-around good thing to be a part of. Have a great weekend!
