1. Most of the class cheating??

   Minn_RN replied to Katherin7's topic in General Students

   I want to do a coin flip. Recently I was applying to CRNA school. Someone who cheated the whole time, and got that 4.0, would get an unfair advantage, when the person who didn't cheat could be at a hypothetical disadvantage. When working at a field ...

2. Why is BSN required for CRNA?

   Minn_RN replied to MM1989's topic in General Nursing

   I apologize for my comment and didn't realize the OP has a chemistry degree. Words for wisdom you will have to shine in other aspects. Having just your AA of nursing will put you ad a disadvantage in the application pool. I would advise to find other...

   Minn_RN replied to MM1989's topic in General Nursing

   I want to start off with wishing you good luck in your journey for CRNA school. Like many other posters I find many issues with your initial statement. First yes BSN is very important and essential to become a successful SRNA student/provider. You m...

6. Most of the class cheating??

   Minn_RN replied to Katherin7's topic in General Students

   Sorry you are dealing with this issue in your program. I was in your situation with respect to people cheating and would really brag about how well they do. One thing I really embrace is whose actions I can control. It is only yourself. You can con...

8. Help with new grad RN orientation/Added shifts

   Minn_RN replied to ICU.RN23's topic in General Nursing

   I am sorry this person is having issues and ICU doesn't seem like a good fit for her at this point of her career (not as an absolute but maybe time to get med/surg or step down maybe a better fit). I hope your facility is listening to preceptors unli...

9. Why is it "legal" for patient to decline male nurses?

   Minn_RN replied to carti's topic in General Students

   Please everyone don't think that all of us male nurses share the attitude that cowboy does. Personally if a female prefers a fellow female nurse I will be happy to give away the assignment to a fellow female RN. I feel providing patient with optimal ...

10. UNE O-Chem Final Exam

    Minn_RN replied to educatemeplease's topic in School Programs

    I really hope if they are not curving either they really stepped up the game of their lectures or lowered the standard of what they expect students to do on the final. I used Chads videos and they were super helpful as a supplement.

11. UNE O-Chem Final Exam

    Minn_RN replied to educatemeplease's topic in School Programs

    Good luck. This class was probably one of the hardest classes I have ever taken. * Remember all of your chemistry rules! * I studied/ reviewed all of my tests I took on that class and if I got any wrong I would review the content and make sure I kn...

    It usually was 2 weeks before Christmas they historically got to applicants. Which makes a great or crappy Holiday season. I wish you all good luck. For those who got interviewed good luck for those who didn't get in try to get some good reflection ...

13. Non productive overtime

    Minn_RN replied to Minn_RN's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you all for the insight. I personally do not do this practice, but I know we have many nurses who will look up their patients (one in particular comes an hour early). My inquiry was mainly as a fellow staff nurse is there anyway to be supportiv...

14. Non productive overtime

    Minn_RN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Recently our hospital HR/ leadership team made an announcement declaring that nurses are only to be accessing charts when punched in. Personally to me this is a non issue because I show up literally minutes before punching in, however there are nurse...

    Mickey I think everyone who got accepted or waitlisted got a PDF. Also we got a class list e-mailed out. My recommendation would be to e-mail Daniel.
