Some of this includes completing EKGs, treadmill tests(similar to Anna's), completing variety of tests, maintains quality results by evaluating diagnostic studies, etc. 
You have to have good hand-eye coordination, and be quick to answer when situations need to be acted upon quickly. You have to possess genuine compassion to others as well for their patients, and have good physical stamina since a lot of the work is on your feet. ]]> 2019-04-24 14:09:54 UTC https://padlet.com/robinchl0001/1o08z3fmnmev/wish/353740706 turkmeg000 https://padlet.com/robinchl0001/1o08z3fmnmev/wish/353743121 Cardiovascular Technologist Job Description | Monster.com.

I would rather have a job and go to school for a couple more years to become an actual doctor or expert in this field instead of assisting in it. You would also get more money if you become an actual expert in this instead of aiding with someone else. However, this career could interest someone who wants to be in the medical field, but doesn't want to go to college for a lot of years.This could also be a good job if someone doesn't want to lead something but may want to just assist in their job. ]]> 2019-04-24 14:21:50 UTC https://padlet.com/robinchl0001/1o08z3fmnmev/wish/353746730 robinchl0001 https://padlet.com/robinchl0001/1o08z3fmnmev/wish/353748632 Average salary for a Cardiovascular Technician/technologist is $27k-$140k.]]> 2019-04-24 14:25:16 UTC https://padlet.com/robinchl0001/1o08z3fmnmev/wish/353748632
