1. Vanderbilt's Nurse Residency Program

   CainRN replied to LeLeeFNP's topic in Tennessee

   I'm not too familiar with the CRNA hiring right now, but I do know that MTSA is where most of the Vandy people go for CRNA. The problem with that is MTSA runs an average class of 70, so this area tends to be a bit flooded with CRNA's at times. Gran...

   Not sure where the info is from, but I'm not seeing any cutbacks around here. It's probably the opposite to be honest.

5. Value of non-nursing Bachelors?

   CainRN replied to CainRN's topic in New Nurse

   The nice thing about this degree is that all the courses I need, save two, can be completed online. It would just be a matter of adding on those two classes this Fall and Spring. I will be able to finish the degree wherever I end up getting my firs...

   CainRN replied to CainRN's topic in New Nurse

   I have a 3.8gpa at the moment. Academically, I know I can handle it, it's just whether or not the work will be worth the pay off.

7. Value of non-nursing Bachelors?

   CainRN posted a topic in New Nurse

   Hey all, I am graduating in May 2010 with my associates in nursing. I plan to get my BSN in a few years, but I have almost enough non-nursing credits to get a Bachelors in liberal studies. To get it, I would have to take about 6 more classes over t...

9. Trauma Nurse

   CainRN replied to CainRN's topic in Emergency

   I think you misunderstood me, I realize that we do not "specialize" in nursing school. This class is to open our eyes to the opportunities available to us once we have graduated and have some experience under our belts. Thanks for the info though. ...

11. Apartments in Nashville

    CainRN replied to CainRN's topic in Tennessee

    Hey, thanks for the info. I'd love to stay as cheap as possible to help pay down my school debt asap, but I realize the area is expensive. If I could stay under $1000 I'd be happy, but I guess I will have to see if that is reasonable. I've heard n...

12. Apartments in Nashville

    CainRN posted a topic in Tennessee

    Hey all, I am planning a move to Nashville soon and I need some suggestions on good places to look for an apartment or condo. I'd love to be within walking/biking distance of Vandy if possible. I'm all the way in northern Indiana, so it's difficult...
