    CNOR

    How did you do the AORN review course? Did you only read through the modules, and then take the one practice test at the end? How long have you been in the OR? I have done the AORN course, and have also ordered the practice test CD. I have Ale...

    hand written signs

    I don't think a sign is going to stop someone from being nasty....just sayin'. I also don't think the signs are professional.
  3. UT Southwestern is also a partnership facility.
  4. I am graduating from this program next week! I definitely recommend it! It took 13 months for me to complete it....not sure if it varies depending on when you start. I started Feb, 2009. There are no classes during Christmas break. It's not too t...

    So very sad....such a knowledgeable, helpful person. My deepest sympathy to her family.

    Will there always be an RN in the OR?

    AORN is big, and with AORN and ANA joining forces, I'm sure it will be a long time, if ever, that RNs are taken completely out. I guess you should always ask if there is a nurse in the OR if you have surgery. In Texas, there definitely is!

    CNOR

    I got my AORN Standards book in the mail yesterday! I have about 3 weeks left to finish my BSN program, then I'll start reading the Standards... I plan to buy the questions CD later as well. Unfortunately, my '2-year' mark (7/21) will put me having...

    CNOR

    I'm getting my BSN for me...not for more pay. I'll register to take the CNOR exam after July for myself as well... Extra pay would be nice, but I am seeking the knowledge, etc for my own self-worth. :)

    Regular RN scope of practice in the OR

    Was this your first time to scrub in, or have you been taught proper technique?

    What is the drive time for rush hour from Katy to MDA?
  11. I don't think the sites should be blocked, but the Aide should have been written up. We have access to FB on our computers, but I do not get on it at work. I don't want my job 'minding my business' by being able to see my stuff. (Yes, I do have c...

    Masters degree for OR?

    This is my concern as well. I am almost finish with my RN-BSN bridge, and would like to continue on later down the road. (I think I better take a break!!) :)

    Scrub tech working out of scope

    He has earned the right to have LPN on his badge, but should only be allowed to do scrub duties. We have an LVN who is a scrub. I give her the respect she deserves, she is a scrub nurse. However, by law, she can't circulate, nor do assessments.

    Freezing cold- what can I wear under my scrubs?

    I think the UnderArmor brand is suppose to be good.... Make sure you get the winter version, and not the 'stay dry' version. :) Sporting goods stores that sell clothing should have this. Also, you could stock up on the packages of hand and feet wa...

    Best unit to prepare for OR?

    If you haven't already, go ahead and apply to any and all OR Internships you can! Many hire right out of school, and with you having other experience, I'm sure you'll find someone willing to train you. Best of luck...the OR is great!
