Why you should not miss this Basic EKG Essentials Course and Exam Opportunity: First of all, our staff were all trained by the late Henry J. L. Marriott, MD, FACC who set the standards for cardiac monitoring that we have further evolved to meet the needs of all cardiovascular areas of practice. What Marriott brought to Cardiac Monitoring Practice was “Pride of Practice and Accuracy in Lead Placement and Interpretation,” for all Cardiovascular Professionals, not just the Doctors. The Society of Cardiac Monitoring offers you the highest Standard of Practice and Education in the industry, and they are leading the Nation in setting and implementing Standards of Practice for Cardiac Monitor Technicians, EKG Technicians, and Telemetry Nurses.
