I agree with the above post. The anesthesia techs in the OR where I have clinical at aren't hands on with patients. All they do is turn rooms over (clean the rooms/change the anesthesia circuits...

And there is a website called AANA.com

They are still conducting interviews

I took advanced patho and pharm at Liberty. Loved the 8 week option too

Try Liberty University

Congrats! I don't know much about CCF because I don't have clinical there. Sorry I couldn't be of any help with that, but send me a pm with your email and I'll send you mine if you have any more...

RNdreams09 are you in for Fall 2013 too? They don't give you that option until around the spring time. School is going good so far. It's tough, but it's doable. You should be nervous, very nervous...

They give you the option of rating clinical sites 1-3 (1 being the site you want the most). But pretty much everyone in my class wanted to be at CCF for clinical, so I think they went by our...

I'm not sure, but you would probably be safe knowing how to calculate gtts. For example mcg/kg/min, mcg/min, mg/hr. And if they give you mc/kg/min know how many ml/hr it's going at etc. Also how to...

Yay!! Congrats! That's awesome!

Good luck if you interviewed today! Let us all know how it went

I'm already in the program. I just started this past August. Yes, Case was my first choice. Love it, but it's stressful!! lol

Nope, I would call. When I applied, they sent me a letter for an interview. I called them to ask if I could interview while I was in town visiting family. They said yes and I was accepted!

A lot of schools require one year of experience, which for a new grad would include the residency. The real question is not if they would accept it. It's whether or not that's enough experience.

Well it seems to me that your FNP program has it backwards. It's recommended that you do not work so you can focus more on your studies because as you said "your job is serious and patients depend on...

CCRN is always a plus. I'm almost certain that most other applicants will probably have it. GRE may or may not be required. If it is, the schools will let you know what an acceptable score is. Bottom...

So sorry, I totally didn't see the BS in biology. You are essentially competing against an applicant pool, so if they have stellar G.P.A's, multiple certifications, and more experience then you can...

Any gtts that you use frequently in the ICU would be a good place to start. Also maybe know about the different disease processes you normally see in your unit.

Well you need a BSN to apply, so you have to wait until you obtain that.

Because you are not an anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or even a scrub tech, your post is subjective. I would suggest you do a little research (outside of forums) about the profession. And maybe...

Each school is different. Some ask lots of clinical questions and some ask mostly get to know you type questions. The best thing to do is use the search engine on this site to look up your school....

LOL I don't understand how people are confusing this with anything other than a Pre-CRNA forum?? Especially since I wrote it under the CRNA tab. In response to Stephh for the CRNA program, they also...

Well why do you want to go into the profession? What inspired you to want to become a CRNA? Start there

I don't know anything about the NP program at Case Western. This post was for nurse anesthesia.

Sounds like you did an excellent job! Septic shock patients are hard to get back once they get really sick like this patients seemed to be. You did a wonderful job!! I would have maybe added some...
