Radiology Nursing is a specialty area for nursing. Many do not know what radiology nurses do on a day to day basis. The nurses in radiology need to have telementry experience as well as ACLS and PALS certification. We are unable to have new graduate nurses in our area because we have alot of autonomy and require good critical thinking skills which come from many years of nursing experience. I developed a power point presentation to be presented in the AS Leadership Council. I was very pleased with the response I received after giving this presentation. Many nurses stated that they had no idea what a radiology nurse does. I have attached the power point presentation, attendance roster and evaluations from the presentation.
