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

patient education related to these procedures. Provide pre- and
post-operative care for patients undergoing cardiovascular
surgeries, including coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), valve

clots. Care Plan Development : Collaborate with cardiologists,
surgeons, and 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

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. Documentation and Reporting : Document patient
assessments, interventions, and outcomes accurately in the
electronic medical record (EMR) according to facility protocols.
