I'm not too familiar with the CRNA hiring right now, but I do know that MTSA is where most of the Vandy people go for CRNA. The problem with that is MTSA runs an average class of 70, so this area tends to be a bit flooded with CRNA's at times. Gran...

Not sure where the info is from, but I'm not seeing any cutbacks around here. It's probably the opposite to be honest.

Good luck everyone. It's worth it...trust me. I was in the Summer 2010 critical care group.

I just got accepted to the Adult Critical care track! Very excited! See you all in Nashville in July!

Hey all, I am graduating in May 2010 with my associates in nursing. I plan to get my BSN in a few years, but I have almost enough non-nursing credits to get a Bachelors in liberal studies. To get it, I would have to take about 6 more classes over t...

The nice thing about this degree is that all the courses I need, save two, can be completed online. It would just be a matter of adding on those two classes this Fall and Spring. I will be able to finish the degree wherever I end up getting my firs...

I have a 3.8gpa at the moment. Academically, I know I can handle it, it's just whether or not the work will be worth the pay off.

Hey all. I'm a nursing student at the moment and am taking one of the Intro to Nursing classes. Part of the course is researching a different area of nursing that we may be interested in working in one day, and presenting our findings to the class....

The presentation went well. Thanks guys!

I think you misunderstood me, I realize that we do not "specialize" in nursing school. This class is to open our eyes to the opportunities available to us once we have graduated and have some experience under our belts. Thanks for the info though. ...

Hey all, I am planning a move to Nashville soon and I need some suggestions on good places to look for an apartment or condo. I'd love to be within walking/biking distance of Vandy if possible. I'm all the way in northern Indiana, so it's difficult...

Hey guys, just started the nursing program at my school. I'll finish up in the Spring of 2010. I got to thinking the other day about where I want to be in 10 years. For me, I'll be 34 and hopefully working in trauma, ICU, ER, or flight nursing. I...

Hey, thanks for the info. I'd love to stay as cheap as possible to help pay down my school debt asap, but I realize the area is expensive. If I could stay under $1000 I'd be happy, but I guess I will have to see if that is reasonable. I've heard n...

I am also an ADN student looking to fly one day. I haven't heard that either way is better, but I'm interested in seeing what the community says as well.

Based on recent personal goals I have set, I'd also like to be at a healthy body weight for my height and be doing regular exercising.

It's BSN for nursing

Sounds like there are some really interesting goals here. Keep the discussion up, I'd like to hear some more!

Hey guys, I figure someone here may have some info that can help me. I am a nursing student in Indiana. After I finish school, I want to work in Tennessee. One job I was interested in starts in June and I'm trying to figure out how I need to test ...

Very cool aspirations everyone!

I'm facing a similar dilemma. I have to wear an all white uniform and I can't find pants that are not see-through. The best I have so far are aviator pants, but they are expensive. I'm hoping that by wearing white underwear and a tucked in white t...

Sounds interesting. I've never really looked into a burn unit.

Being a big guy, I wear aviator scrubs. They have tons of cargo pockets, wallet pockets, even pen pockets on the shoulders. I find that there is plenty of room for me to carry my pens, tape, scissors, PDA, a small notebook, stethoscope, and whateve...

Haha, touche my friend. Perhaps "job you want upon graduation" would be more appropriate.

It's on the BB front page for me.

It's supposedly down until Tuesday
