I have recently seen some advertisements online advertising an online program at the University of New England for a DNP in Anesthesia. Does anyone have any information regarding this program? I might consider getting my doctorate if I could do most ...

Since no one here had heard of this online dnp program, I went ahead and emailed the assistant director of program. This is the response I got: Yes our on-line DNP program is in the marketing stages. We are in the final stages of approvals. We expect...

I finished two years ago and borrowed just for my tuition which was $50,000. I probably spent another $60K over 3 years on everything else. And that was living cheap.

Here is a link to the advertisement that I saw online: http://nurseanesthetist.une.edu/lp-dnp/?src=C_Facebook&kwd=crnas&utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=crnas I'm wondering if it may be bogus. I looked on the Universi...

I'm already a nurse anesthetist. I did not think that I could become a CRNA online. I was simply asking if anyone had any information regarding a DNP program that I saw advertised.

In clinicals today, a CRNA asked me about the significance of an arterial cascade pattern. I had never heard of this and I'm having trouble finding information on it. He was describing it as an up and down variation in the height of the arterial wa...

The hospital where I work has two different concentrations of Dopamine. 400mg/250cc is for peripheral use. We usually use 800mg/250cc...double strength to be used in central lines only.

Frankly, I push undiluted Ativan into central lines all the time. I've never had any problems. The key, however, is to draw it up with an 18G needle.

Hey, guys! Just wanted to send a quick update, especially for those of you who are going to be interviewing in March. I had my interview with UAB today. It was nothing at all like I expected. And, according to what I've heard from those who inter...

WooHoo! I am happy to report that I was accepted to UAB!! I got my letter yesterday...yes, certified mail is GOOD!!

Sweetie, most agencies pay at least 35/hr...don't do it! Sounds like a scam to me. Nursing Innovations out of Memphis has some contracts in the southeast.

I have two favorites from when I travelled: Bridge Staffing-the only agency I worked for where my recruiter actually called me weekly to check on me and see how I was doing. Global RN-pay was always correct. They never tried to get me to share an ap...

I've been doing this gig for about 12 yrs now...and my vote is definitely no. I understand that the family is concerned about their family member. I do all I can to keep them update. But, if the patient is critically ill, then he needs intensive c...

I do have a special report sheet that I made up on my computer, primarily for the reason that our unit went to computer charting and we no longer have a flow sheet. It just has basic info: Md's, DX, HX, Lines, IVF's, Labs, Vent settings, CT's, drai...

Most ridiculous thing I've ever seen was a pt...BM mid-40's came in bright and early one morning. Chief Complaint: "I slept with a crack 'ho last night." (Not to mention the fact that he looked like he'd been smoking some.) No lie...Ladies and Gen...

Fluorescent Light Therapy- for those pt's who call the ambulance to pick them up for something stupid and who swear they absolutely cannot find a ride home, hoping that the hospital will come off with a FREE taxi voucher. Well, our hospital is very...

A pulmonary artery rupture is a very rare thing! I've been an ICU nurse for thirteen years and I've never seen that happen. It's just one of those freaky complications that can very rarely occur...not the the nurse did anything wrong. I am very co...

Hi, everyone! I'm from Jackson, MS and I have my interview with UAB for grad school this weekend. Is there anyone who has already interviewed at B'ham that can tell me what to expect? I have a friend who interviewed last year, who said they didn'...

No worries! I thought they might be a little similar, but I in no way expected them to be exactly the same. I know that there were different interviewers here in Jackson. Williams didn't interview. All of my interviewers were on staff at UMC exc...
