2. Bay Medical Center-Gooding Institute of NA

   jebain replied to jfpruitt's topic in CRNA

   Just putting my two cents worth in: I actually met the director of the Gooding Institute when I was looking at applying to schools for this fall. He was very laid back, nice, direct guy. I liked the staff & students I met there as well. No, it is...

3. Missing a week of Classes

   jebain replied to bwt02's topic in CRNA

   I am starting my program this August, and I would not even consider taking time off in the beginning. You applied to school & should know what it takes mentally, physically, financially, & time wise. To ask for time off to go on a honeymoon d...

4. CRNA Interview soon

   jebain replied to RLSU4CRNA's topic in CRNA

   Know what you have been exposed to well, and do not try to B.S. the interviewers. Just say you don't know. This was the best advice given to me before I interviewed. They are not looking for the person who gets the most answers right-they are lookin...

5. BSN??since ADN grades with C in nursing?

   jebain replied to JuneRN's topic in CRNA

   I agree that the competition is tough, but you need to find out what schools you want to apply to. Some schools don't factor in ADN or prereq. grades. Some only look at your BSN grades, some look at BSN grades plus science, math, & statistics gra...

   congrats!! I just moved to Kansas from Alabama so I can start the crna program here in August. It is an adjustment, but I know it will be worth it. I am glad I moved early so my husband and I can get adjusted to the area before I get started. Good Lu...

7. Any encouragement?

   jebain replied to jemommyRN's topic in CRNA

   First of all, congrats and goodluck in nursing school. The key to being a well-rounded, competent nurse is to have the desire and commitment to life-time learning. The medical world continuously changes, and nurses must strive to learn all they can....

    jebain replied to jebain's topic in CRNA

    Thanks everyone for the advice. I have selected to attend Newman, and I am very pleased with the feedback from current and former students. It seems to be the small, friendly, and supportive environment I am looking for in a school.

    jebain replied to Qwiigley's topic in CRNA

    I am an EP nurse too, but soon to be off to crna school!! EP is a different ball game, and it is amazing what you learn in the lab! You learn about the heart in a whole different light.

13. Florida Schools

    jebain replied to Painfree1's topic in CRNA

    I have a friend in Panama City & she loves the Gooding Institute. I have met the director myself, and I was impressed with him and the program. Close knit group from what I gather-with no special treatment for people that work there or have "conn...

14. Pacemakers

    jebain replied to Qwiigley's topic in CRNA

    Hey I agree there are many misconceptions out there. Mainly because people don't realize the programing details of these devices. I see many patients with a fib, mostly 2per day. The patients with pacemakers implanted for afib are usually ppm dependa...
