assumes primary care responsibilities that promote health, prevent

from intensive care, but still require close monitoring for signs
of physical distress or danger. Telemetry nurses utilize
sophisticated medical equipment to monitor the vital signs of
patients in their unit. Nurses work with physicians to develop
treatment plans for patients in the telemetry unit. The blood

specialized equipments, and telemetry nurses keep track of this
information and take quick action to treat patients who develop
problems. Telemetry nurses mainly care for patients recovering from
heart conditions or cardiac surgery. 5 Benefits of Travel Nursing
