  1. Pre-grad school online courses

    Look at Graceland Univ Online campus also. I found the ANP Patho and Pharm classes there before heading to a brick and mortar CRNA program. They were around $1500 each, with the books, for 3 credits each.
  2. VA-Unions?

    We used our union when we had staffing issues on our unit. Their presence, along with some other help, put the pressure on managment to hire RN's as they were desperately needed.
  3. Univ of North Florida

    Lionhart --- Do some research! U.S.F. has a crna program. Bay Medical also has a program with tuition comparable to the state schools, although it is an independent program. I'm headed to FIU myself and was surprisingly impressed with the program des...
  4. Univ of North Florida

    "JacksonvilleRN" has posted an acceptance in another thread. Congrats!
  5. Univ of North Florida

    I guess they didn't make calls today (thursday) since no one has heard. Maybe tomorrow? Did they tell you guys we'd know by Friday, too?
  6. Univ of North Florida

    Nothing yet here. The suspense is killing me, I have to tell my back up yes or no tomorrow. Ekk!
  7. Univ of North Florida

    BaySky, when did you interview?
  8. Univ of North Florida

    No. This will only be the second year of the program there. Are you still in Seattle? That's a long move!
  9. Univ of North Florida

    No. This will only be the second year of their program. Wow, I just saw you are from Seattle, still there? That's a big move to Jax. Are you accepted any where else, or interviewed anywhere else? Feel free to PM if uncomfortable answering here.
  10. Univ of North Florida

    What date is your interview? I'll be there Monday the 5th.
  11. Gooding Institute Interview

    I don't feel I did very well at the interview. I was extremely nervous and was kicking myself on the way home for being that way. I can talk to anyone, anywhere and not be nervous, I didn't have my game face on for sure. It wasn't a hard interview, t...
  12. 'Scuse me sir, don't bite into that frito ! ! !

    What I find the most annoying is that these pts don't do what they need to to stay healthy, and then come back again and again. Then when we are caring for them they complain about being there. If you don't want treatment, DON'T COME IN!! Or atleast ...
  13. Gooding Institute Interview

    I go Wednesday for my interview there, I'll let you know how it is!
  14. I am a Student Studying for CRNA just infomed I have HEP C.

    I would NEVER even mention this in any way shape or form in any application process. This is completely your business and no one else has a right to know. Like dfk says we precautiously treat everyone like they have "icky bugs" (as we cal them on my ...
  15. MY quest to get into CRNA prgram!

    Which program did you get into, if you don't mind me asking! I have an interview next week at FIU. I am super nervous. Congrats!!
  16. Patient is a famous star

    Oh, the possibilities are endless . . . Johnny Depp, Derek Jeter . . . this could be a long list!
  17. Anybody attend UF accelerated?

    I work with a RN who did the accelerated program at UF. She is top notch! I know it is really intense, the patho and pharm classes were over the summer, so only 12 weeks rather than 16. Clinical time is less too but I feel you get out of it what you ...
  18. Dog and Pony Show --A Nursing School Rant!!

    Don't let the faculty/administrators discourage you. You make your own destiny in nursing school. A group of us were looked at as big time trouble makers because we wanted to participate in a medical mission trip. Granted on our own time with our own...
  19. Dog and Pony Show --A Nursing School Rant!!

    They make you take the HESI every semester?? Once was bad enough for me, and pay for it multiple times? Ouch.
  20. They Think I'm Working Christmas??

    This is crazy! Why do they think we will continue to be walked all over? I was scheduled to work Christmas, after volunteering to work ALL the other holidays and only asking off for Christmas. Took it to our "Acting NM" and she tells me too bad. It'...
  21. Share Your Funniest Patient Stories...

    Had a confused pt today . . . hmm, everyday. I had started him on ice chips post extubation. I had just explained to him about his Magnesium Sulfate replacement that I was hanging. After a pause he asked if he could have another magnesium please. As ...
  22. I had to take the HESI when I was in undergrad. That was almost two years ago. You weren't able to graduate without passing it and walk in the spring graduation otherwise, supposedly. We saw it as a way for the school to increase their NCLEX pass rat...
