Cardiology Technologist Day (February 14)

On February 14th, we celebrate cardiology technologists by highlighting the importance of their role of in the diagnosis and treatment of heart arrhythmias and heart disease.

Registered Cardiology Technologists (RCT) are a specialized group of educated health care professionals who work with cardiologists and internal medicine specialists. They perform a variety of non-invasive cardiac diagnostic tests such as Electrocardiograms, Exercise Stress Testing, Holter monitoring, and cardiac device monitoring and programming.

These skilled providers deliver important patient care services and to many patients, RCTs are the front line workers and friendly faces they see when receiving care for heart disease.

 We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and thank our cardiology technologists for their dedication to providing compassionate care to the people of Northwestern Ontario.
