We are training the next generation of nurses, whose confidence in their skills is coupled with a genuine concern for helping others get well, and stay healthy. Video: Hands-On Training for Student Success: Vocational Nurse (VN) Program.
Your resting heart rate is the heart pumping the lowest amount of blood you need because youâre not exercising. If youâre sitting or lying and youâre calm, relaxed and arenât ill, your heart rate is normally between 60 (beats per minute) and 100 (beats per minute). But a heart rate lower than 60 doesnât necessarily signal a medical problem. It could be the result of taking a drug such as a beta blocker.
Thus, a normal heart rate for women is between 70 to 80 beats per minute. For women that are into health and fitness and exercise regularly this range may go down and be between 45 to 60 beats per minute. If you exercise and are not overweight you will find that your resting heart rate will be well bellow the 70bpm mark.
