AdventHealth University Nurse Anesthesia Program 2020

[Gasman]

I couldn't find any information on the new class beginning in May '20 for AdventHealth in Orlando. I would like this topic to cater to both accepted and hopeful applicants. Provide information about the school's program, stats, application/acceptance process, etc...

[Gasman]

So I'll start by saying that I have been accepted into the 2020 cohort contingent on the successful completion of a Chem/Physics for Anesthesia class, background check and drug screen.

I was surprised that I didn't find any information about this cohort on any platform other than the school's website.

I will choose another school while you still can...

Why do you suggest a different program?

I hope that you will give these people some information. Can't just leave these poor folks hanging with something like that.

I just started the program. From what I recall, NoelleP said that they don’t work with you unless you “look” like them, and that they will not help you when you go to them. I’m in the program now and the faculty is very diverse. Some barely speak English. They all seem helpful and forthright. I think OP said something about one student that was on the verge of failing and they kind of helped him leave the program. I can’t remember exactly.
The weather here is beautiful. They have beaches and natural springs an hour or less drive away. They got Disney, Universal, Seaworld, etc. when they open back up. Oh; and it’s the largest Level 1 Trauma hospital in the nation with around 8 clinical sites that are part of the system.
Like I said...I just started. It wasn’t my first choice school, but it’s definitely growing on me. I think I have a great opportunity here.

Well I think the field we are going in we will all face difficult situations and difficult people (MDAs and Surgeons) so how we deal with it all depends on us huh?! Well thank you for the response! I am applying there for this next cohort and hope to get in! Best of luck!

The best advice I received from a CRNA is "whatever happens, keep your cool, and consider it water off a duck's back."
