  1. Labor epidural lawsuit

    Mike I think that is probably a good idea to do. I will probably start doing the same myself.
  2. IF I work part time, is "1 year ICU exp" still 1 year?

    I was not referring to working while working on your BSN from your ASN. I am not working at all finishing up my CRNA degree. However, Only part time ICU experience for only 1 year is probably too little experience entering CRNA school. And I imagine ...
  3. What one message about CRNA's do you wish the public "got".

    No one says we aren't 'Nurses'. when we graduate we are called Nurse Anesthetist's. Not an anesthesia nurse which is quite demeaning seeing the degree and all the training we have been through. I am still a nurse yes, but I find it very demeaning to ...
  4. IF I work part time, is "1 year ICU exp" still 1 year?

    I agree, I think there is a minimum of hours also so going full time would benefit you the best, also, if you are only working part time and only for 1 year before you apply that is probably too little experience.
  5. Labor epidural lawsuit

    We let 2 family members in at the time we are placing an epidural. When we place it I pretty much always tell people if they feel light headed to sit down in that spot immediately. I personally do not feel the law suit will go anywhere, I could be wr...
  6. 1 year ICU experience

    To me it seemed like they were looking for being able to perform under pressure. They know that everyone is most likely nervous going into the interviews but they want to see how much you really know. The application you give them won't tell them any...
  7. 1 year ICU experience

    I was accepted one year out of school with only that year working in the ICU. Depends mostly it seems on your interview.
  8. Last Words before Induction.......

    before I go back to the room I tell the patient what to expect once we get to the room, ie. hooking up monitors, letting them breathe oxygen while I get ready to put them to sleep. Right before I start pushing the drugs I tell them they will start to...
  9. Which bank is best for alternative loans?

    Big Dave, what kind of origination fee did you have with that loan? I just got approved for a 20,000 dollar loan through bankone but the origination fee was 2,400 dollars.
  10. anesthesia for organ harvest?

    I have only had one case of a live organ harvest but like sonessrna said, I also like to run my anesthesia to take care of the vital organs that they are harvesting. Amnesia is not a concern since the patient is brain dead. You are concerned about h...
  11. Texas Wesleyan University Roll Call

    If I could give anybody a recommendation for TWU, especially those who will not be staying in Fort Worth for their phase II. I would stay in the dorms on campus. I know it doesn't sound fun but you will be suprised at the number of people who do stay...

  13. Still waiting to hear from TWU

    i would not expect to hear before the end of march or april. that is when I heard. Good luck!!! Hope you get in here!
  14. Texas Wesleyan University Roll Call

    Dr Reinke is HARD. Like I have told everyone else who has asked, the class is very doable. You just have to commit to it. When you take the first test, realize it will be the hardest test you have ever taken probably, not that the material is so hard...
  15. Texas Wesleyan University Roll Call

    Congrats to you all for your acceptance. The road is hard but you can do it. I will finish in December from TWU and cannot wait! The light at the end of the tunnel is not too far off!
