We at SpringBoard Healthcare are very interested in how people enter into Cardiovascular Medicine. He was first involved in respiratory therapy, and then opted to start a military – 2 year course in cardiovascular medicine. Mapping is changing so fast into high voltage mapping, the merging of CAT scans and regular mapping as “side by side” tools in EP. Jim says that many things have changed in Cardiovascular Medicine over the years, but what has not changed is his desire to always learn the next new procedure.
The CEPS credential is becoming considered a more advanced EP credential among clinical-industry-education circles, while the RCES credential is taking deeper roots in the hospital clinical setting for the allied professional (RNs, RTs, CVTs). A study which illustrates this is in an EP development consulting project SpringBoard recently concluded, which demonstrated through various assessments and testing, that RNs and techs (RT/CVT) roles were 90 percent similar in all aspects in job performance and expectations in the EP lab setting, however the RNs without RCES credentialing scored 30% lower on average compared to RNs with the RCES credential. The question should not be whether or not RNs need to obtain RCES credentialing, or whether or not the RN accrediting bodies should or should not recognize the RCES credential. If ALL allied professionals had greater access to formal EP education or RCES/CEPS exam prep, would more allied professionals (RN, RT, CVT) seek the EP education and credentials to advance their careers?
