    CAPRN77 replied to vitkev13's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  2. Army to pay for CRNA school?

    CAPRN77 replied to robertesteele's topic in Government, Military

    Yes you are. You have to finish CRNA school if they expect you to be able to perform as a CRNA. Also, the deployments for CRNA's are 90 days "boots on ground" but it can be as often as once a year....

  5. Advice from acute/critical care NP's

    CAPRN77 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Well I'm not exactly looking for advice as much as looking to hear about your job. I am still up in the air as far as whether I'd like to become a CRNA or critical care NP. I have looked into both...

  6. Where to live in MA?

    CAPRN77 replied to MikeyJ's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

  8. Is a community college okay to go to?

    CAPRN77 replied to Chloe8043's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  9. Advice from acute/critical care NP's

    CAPRN77 replied to CAPRN77's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    CAPRN77 replied to AdonaiLoveable's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    CAPRN77 replied to Phishininau's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm quite jealous! I start my CRNA program in the fall and I am so anxious to get started so I can have that same feeling that you are having now. Congrats and keep it

  14. ICU(as ADN) for CRNA?

    CAPRN77 replied to newbeginnings07's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I would say that it would be better to gain your critical care experience while working toward your BSN. That is exactly what I did. I am not yet in a CRNA program, but I do have an interview next...

  15. Northeastern University

    CAPRN77 replied to CAPRN77's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    A few days before Christmas I received an e-mail stating that I have been selected for an interview. However, I do realize that this in no way means that I have been accepted. I know that several...

    CAPRN77 replied to ksc0723's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I hope you get some good replies to this thread. I am also considering going the CRNA route but I am also thinking about critical care NP. I have already shadowed a CRNA at work but it wasn't a good...

  20. RN-BSN and Grad School easier than undergrad?

    CAPRN77 replied to PeachPie's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know about grad school but RN-BSN was definitely easier than obtaining my ADN. Basically the RN-BSN program there were essentially no tests, just a bunch of busy work like papers and projects....
