Hi, I’m Kati 👋
I’m a nurse educator and the nurse behind FreshRN.
I remember how many things get lost in the shuffle when you’re new because everybody assumes somebody else already told you.
Telemetry (with all its little nuances) can absolutely fall into that category.
I created this course to pre-answer some of those basic questions so you can walk into clinicals or your unit with more context and better questions for your instructor or preceptor.

What nurses say about Telemetry Basics Brush-Up
“Thank you for this mini course! I'm a new grad about to start a critical care job and cardiac has always been my nemesis. This course was exactly what I needed to refresh. Just enough info to boost my confidence but not so much that my post-nursing-school brain felt overwhelmed. Thanks, Kati!”
— Sarah
“This telemetry basics brush-up gives me great ideas of questions to ask my new preceptor, and a beautiful introduction to the world of telemetry that I am walking into. Instead of being overwhelmed by the monitors and questions I will have, I am grateful for a frame of reference and foundational understanding of the reason for their monitors, what kinds of things I will want to keep track of and chart for the purpose of communication with the providers, etc.”
— Grace Wyatt, BSN RN
“Kati and the team does it again! This was a great tele review/brush up course. Everything was taught in a clear and easy to understand manor while also being fun and not dry like traditional textbook learning. This is the third course I've purchased through FreshRN and certainly not the last. On to the next course!”
— Shannon Hedden Brown, BSN, RN
