About

I am inspired most when providing leadership and taking ownership of clinical operations and practices. An experienced Cardiac Technician, I have acquired a reputation for quickly grasping new ideas and concepts. Effectively combining outstanding people skills with technical acumen to develop innovative and creative solutions to problems. My main aim is to provide a quality clinical service to every patient I treat. Understanding and explaining ECGs, I support key medical professionals in the diagnosis of heart problems. On a daily basis, I administer stress tests to check heart functioning during exercise, or apply Holter monitors, to monitor the heart rate over prolonged periods of time. At all times, I watch for signs of problems in hospitalised patients. As a Cardiac Technician I carry out crucial diagnostic, monitoring, and analytical procedures, where necessary I also assist with interventional procedures.
