  1. I graduated from the FACT-1 Program years ago and it looks like the FACT-1 program favored those with GPAs 3.5+ meanwhile they placed those in the FACT-2 cohort with a 3.4 or less. You can also make...
  2. Mary Baldwin University CRNA 2023

    I scored 3rd quartile on the Casper no interview as yet. Also, I think this thread is for last year's application
  3. At this point you're arguing just to argue. I answered the OP's question and I answered your question about what's considered fluff. You're adding more unnecessary assumptions. Nowhere did I say a...
  4. When the op stated "can a second degree student apply for a traditional BSN”…so if they went that route they would take those courses over. an accelerated BSN is not a traditional
  5. These courses are fluff and shouldn't be taken a second time during a second degree BSN. I'm responding to the question regarding what's considered fluff so yes these are fluff. If the OP didn't have...
  6. If you already have a 4 year degree...and decide to return to school for a 4 year BSN...everything outside of your core nursing curriculum is considered FLUFF; math, english, psychology, philosophy,...
  7. Mine was 12 months and I went insane a few times LOL. Still recommend it for those who just want to get in and get out. There was another local program that was 11 months. As for the OP, yes,...
  8. RN to BSN or simply BSN?

    A BSN allows you take the NCLEX-RN upon graduation which grants you practice
  9. Grady Or Piedmont

    If CRNA is the end goal you might as well skip the ED and go straight to the ICU at either hospitals. Although some programs accept ED experience, majority of them will take an ICU nurse over an...
  10. On the log in page, does it show "missing application items?” Or top left hover over application > application checklist > missing items? if not
  11. You have to create a new online portal account and it somehow links it to your submitted
  12. It's open from Nov 1-Feb
  13. I have not applied yet but interested in this program Current stats: 5 years ED experience (Preceptor, charge, USGIV certified) 10 months CICU (charge) 3.54 (1st degree), 3.66...
  14. Nah I think it means your application is still under
  15. Mary Baldwin University CRNA 2023

    I'd like to know this as well. Applying this
  16. Left the ICU after 1.5 yrs, where to next?

    Good luck in this new
  17. I applied, waiting for two of my references to submit my
  18. Med assistants are nurses?

    Not legally...but MAs are lumped in the nursing category for the same reason when you're on a company's website to apply for a job and you click "nursing"...CNAs, MAs, and nursing techs are listed...
  19. No. No one truly cares what your degree is. At least, not where I work. An RN is an RN no matter the degree (Diploma, ASN, BSN, MSN). We're all in the trenches at the bedside. Go in with a "I am here...
  20. Left the ICU after 1.5 yrs, where to next?

    Give the ED a shot? It's definitely going to be a challenge because you're switching mindset from "I need to know every single detail" to "I only care for what is presented in front of me" and ship...
  21. Y-site compatibility

    Epic has lexicomp embedded in the MAR for trissel's compatibility. From my understanding, all vasoactive infusions are compatible with each other and all sedations are compatible with each
  22. Elevated Ammonia level

    ...that wasn't the point I was trying to make. The point is...the buck stops with the doc as proven above. That's normal...scary yes...but that's hierarchical health care for ya (hence the sugar...
  23. Elevated Ammonia level

    I'm not sure if you realize you're agreeing with me. But agree or not, if you go to the attending to have the patient intubated for airway protection and the say no, how is the patient going to...
  24. Elevated Ammonia level

    My favorite part about being a nurse lmao (being told no). You voice your concerns but the buck stops with the doc. There's only so much you can advocate for but at the end of the day, if they say no,...
  25. If for personal growth then why not especially if you can afford it. If it's to be the only RN in your hospital to be multi-cert'd then no use in shelling out hundreds of $$$ for that - half the time...
