By interpreting the EKG correctly, the rhythm and conduction disturbances can be identified. This interpretation can provide valuable information regarding the patient’s cardiac status. This program will provide information necessary to help nurses interpret the EKG. The course will provide a brief review od the electrocardiography, components of waveform and systemic approach to analyzing an EKG.

NURSING SKILLS FAIR Nursing procedures are constantly changing this is due to never ending discoveries in bestpractice health care methods. As nurses we want to ensure that our knowledge and skills in nursing procedures are always updated. We can read a lot of them and have the knowledge but it is different if we have the developed a certain level of skill acquisition, particularly in this time of new technology. For this reason CCNAPI is offering a course focusing on common nursing procedures.
