  1. CRNA Student Loans

    Jkloo replied to Mnurse18's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The school performs a cost of attendance analysis factoring in living costs for 1 person, not for multiple. The government bases the unsubsidized loan levels permitted from this. You can go out and...

  2. How good was your Florida CRNA program?

    Jkloo replied to Surfing_T_waves's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Sorry I really don't know. It's just the reputation. I know of a hospital in Texas that for instance won't take students from Florida schools....presumably wouldn't hire either. Not trying to start an...

    Jkloo replied to Surfing_T_waves's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  4. Low Science GPA

    Jkloo replied to morduna's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You're welcome. I was in nursing school many years ago when I discovered that there was such a thing as CRNAs. Keep your eye on the prize and try to enjoy the

  5. Low Science GPA

    Jkloo replied to morduna's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yeah, join any hospital committees you can get your hands on. Join your local AACN when you get into an ICU and go to the meetings. Oftentimes the hospital will have everyone do refresher training...

  6. Low Science GPA

    Jkloo replied to morduna's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Just work on taking more science classes and doing well in nursing school. It's a very long journey. Do well in your nursing courses, try to be flexible and move to an area where you can get into...

    Jkloo replied to slothgang19's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  8. Waiving ICU requirement

    Jkloo replied to lellomere's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Plenty of applicants without waiving any requirements as it

  9. What are your schools doing about COVID and clinical?

    Jkloo replied to DreameRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Nobody wants to be delayed in graduating. Some parts of the country are being hit harder than others, to make a such a blanket call as to shut down all clinical for all programs is ridiculous....

  10. All these nurses writing articles

    Jkloo replied to KalipsoRed21's topic in General Nursing

    Yes. I am not sure how the topic got on OSHA/Fire Marshal and other federal mandates. If you have a hospital wide policy allowing drinks at the nurses station, I would bet money you would be found in...

  11. RaDonda Vaught Update - State Health Officials Reverse Decision and File Medical Disciplinary Charges

    Jkloo replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Nursing News

  12. Legal obligation for disaster relief

    Jkloo replied to kardz30's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I don't know. I suppose if the disaster was completely unpredictable, then yeah it would be fairly separate. In the southeast with hurricanes...there is at least a fair amount of predictability to...

  13. Legal obligation for disaster relief

    Jkloo replied to kardz30's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If it was decent enough there wouldn't be a need to threaten people's licenses or fire people over it...they'd be able to sustain the minimal staff requirement as needed through market forces....

  14. Legal obligation for disaster relief

    Jkloo replied to kardz30's topic in Disaster Preparation

    What I don't get is all these teams of disaster relief folks that come in from all over the country...law enforcement, linemen, other state agents...all receiving massive financial incentives to go...

    Jkloo replied to Maria3248's topic in General Students

    Sounds like you're doing great. And I do not mean that sarcastically. Don't beat yourself up over

  16. Can nurses really “do anything??”

    Jkloo replied to Piper98's topic in General Students

    I think you need to genuinely ask yourself what you'd rather be doing with your life - career wise. A lot of folks are running off getting various degrees with absolutely no market for them. Today,...

  17. $200,000 salary as a RN, it's true

    Jkloo replied to guest416560's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Does it matter? Community college is dog cheap bordering on about 1-2k a year in tuition even for those who pay full price. Isn't New York also free for

  18. Feedback appreciated

    Jkloo replied to jinct's topic in General Nursing

    I'm really surprised at the amount of comments putting the blame on the physician. I can't really see how the physician is to blame for someone who isn't involved in the patient's care failing to...

  19. $200,000 salary as a RN, it's true

    Jkloo replied to guest416560's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It's often why a lot of folks earn money in these types of areas, retire early, then move to the LCOL areas. You can make and save ton if you live with a few roommates in SF making 150-200k (not...

  22. $200,000 salary as a RN, it's true

    Jkloo replied to guest416560's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    One aspect of the affordable housing crisis in California, which contributes tremendously to the increased COL, is that a lot of the home owners and builders don't really want more affordable housing....

  23. Feedback appreciated

    Jkloo replied to jinct's topic in General Nursing

    I think part of the problem is we now have a system-blaming tendency that is transitioning back to people-blaming. That kind of mentality is on the way out. The nurse at Vanderbilt is being charged...

  24. $200,000 salary as a RN, it's true

    Jkloo replied to guest416560's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I brought up San Antonio and other cities as a metric of crime. The poster above was implying Sacramento was crime-ridden. That isn't the case when compared to other cities. Lets say the cost of...

  25. $200,000 salary as a RN, it's true

    Jkloo replied to guest416560's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I also want to mention, crime statistics per capita for Sacramento is literally the EXACT same compared to places like Omaha. Per capita places like Minneapolis and San Antonio have more crime...
