1. Is this job (nurse anesthetist) really as good as Im reading or no?

   channtheman replied to Zagnonian's topic in SRNA

   I don't know if you are upset, but it sounds like you are. My main point in all of this was that CRNA's who act like money isn't an issue and never should be should just stop. Money DOES play a factor in every profession and choosing what one does ...

   channtheman replied to Zagnonian's topic in SRNA

   I'm willing to wager that you are in the vast minority when it comes to actually seeing a pay decrease after becoming a CRNA. The reason CRNA's tell hopefuls to put money low on the list isn't (or at least it shouldn't) be because they will actually...

3. So you think flu vaccinations don't work . . . .

   channtheman replied to Laidback Al's topic in COVID

   I agree the fictional examples don't help his case, but what about his conclusions regarding the manipulation of stats to make it appear that the flu shot is more effective than it is? Or that this study has a conflict of interest with those who fu...

   channtheman replied to Zagnonian's topic in SRNA

   It gets old reading from the altruistic bunch who act like they never considered the pay raise they would achieve when going from an RN to a CRNA. I highly doubt anyone who has made the transition didn't think about the money. Obviously, it very li...

5. So you think flu vaccinations don't work . . . .

   channtheman replied to Laidback Al's topic in COVID

   Shock vaccine study reveals influenza vaccines only prevent the flu in 1.5 out of 100 adults (not 60% as you've been told) What do you think of this article? It references the study you just linked, and apparently the flu shot isn't nearly as effect...

6. Grateful for my flu shot....

   channtheman replied to roser13's topic in COVID

   The CDC also lumps in influenze and all influenza like illnesses such as pneumonia, etc. in with their stats when they talk about the 36,000 people who die from the flu every year. Just to recap, they claim 36,000 people die from the flu every year ...

7. So you think flu vaccinations don't work . . . .

   channtheman replied to Laidback Al's topic in COVID

   I would be much more interested in an article not funded by the influenza vaccine companies showing evidence based proof that the flu shot even does anything. It is always sad when children die, but to imply that giving them something that has not b...

8. Took Boards today.

   channtheman replied to Tashy Mary Kay's topic in NCLEX

   Only 20 SATA is surprising to me. I did not count but I would estimate for every 15 questions, I would get 3-4 priority, 3-4 SATA, and the rest random. I got all 275 questions. Wising you luck that you passed!

9. Job search frustration...please help me break through!

   channtheman replied to cthompson3216's topic in Job Hunt

   You're not going to like hearing this, but big cities are probably not going to even look at you if you don't have connections. Focus more on getting a year of experience anywhere you can get it.

10. There are jobs for new grads! (success story)

    channtheman posted a topic in New Nurse

    I just wanted to make this post to encourage other new grads that have been having a difficult time finding jobs and let you know how I went about applying, etc. This is just going to be my story from the time I passed NCLEX to this present day. Th...
