Upon admission each patient/resident with cardiac concerns undergoes a thorough
medical history and physical exam as well as an ECG and pertinent
cardiovascular exam. Based on the assessment results, the patient
is initiated into our Telemetry Monitoring Rehabilitation Program.
During a patient’s therapy program, our Director of Cardiac
Monitoring oversees the program and conducts weekly team rounds,
while continuous telemetry monitoring is administered under direct
supervision of an Advanced Cardiac Life Support Certified RN
monitoring heart rate, cardiac rhythms, and pertinent cardiovascular
exams. We use sophisticated, hospital grade telemetry
equipment, and, if in the event of an emergency situation, we
implement a STAT procedure. Our response time is immediate, and we are
fully equipped with resuscitation carts, including defibrillators and
life-saving medications.
