  1. (BSN) Travel Nurses MAKE MORE than CRNAs!

    CRNA2BKY replied to hojimma's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    165K-185K? Travellers making $56/hr? What kind of drugs are you on? There are NO travel assignments for ICU nurses making that kind of money on a regular basis. Most travel companies are paying around...

  2. Can a CRNA become a............

    CRNA2BKY replied to hocke5716's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    As the others said, you can go to medical school if you want. My physician said there were 2 CRNA's in his class when he went to medical

  3. Not a CNA or EMT....can i still be a good nurse?

    CRNA2BKY replied to Gannon1qb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have no idea why you think this, but nothing could be further than the truth than that. There are 23 students in my ABSN class, and only 1 student is an EMT, and none are CNA's. So, you absolutely...

  4. New Nurses-Length of Job Search?

    CRNA2BKY replied to abundantjoy07's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hey hoglover, you could start a whole new post with this question. Probably get a lot more responses. Good luck with whatever route you

  5. Med. Surg

    CRNA2BKY replied to kdream's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    No need to be nervous. I had my med-surge clinicals my first couple of semesters. Now, I'm moving on to OB, Peds, and Psych. Having med-surge for the first one seems pretty good, because it really...

  6. Medical Assistant looking to become LPN

    CRNA2BKY replied to boompsie's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I think it's great that you are thinking about your future. My personal recommendation is that you shoot for your RN, not an LPN. There are many, many, many more jobs out there for RN's than LPN's....

  7. New Nurses-Length of Job Search?

    CRNA2BKY replied to abundantjoy07's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm in an ABSN program right now, and I wondered the same thing. So, when I was starting my ABSN program, I talked with 3 students from the ABSN class that was just graduating. They told me that out...

  8. Moving to Az in August

    CRNA2BKY replied to nhnurse1's topic in Arizona Nursing

  9. All CRNAs need to READ this

    CRNA2BKY replied to janecristensen's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Thank you for this wonderful post. I think you really hit the nail on the head: CRNA's are not MD's, but they do serve a purpose, and they do their jobs well. I'm hoping to become a crna someday. I'm...

  10. Taking A&P I this Summer? Would you do it again? Vote here!

    CRNA2BKY replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OK, I'm a dork. In the very first sentence, I wrote, "I would do it any other way!" but what I really meant to write was, I WOULDN'T do it any other way. Silly

  11. Taking A&P I this Summer? Would you do it again? Vote here!

    CRNA2BKY replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would do it any other way! I took both A&P 1 and 2 last summer; each was a 5-week session. They were the only classes I took, so I could concentrate 100% in them, and it worked because I made...

  12. Doctor Frustrations

    CRNA2BKY replied to Anesthesialovr's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Excellent point!!! Thank you for noting that doctors can be excellent with their people skills. I've known my fair share of physicians who are some of the most caring, understanding, and sensitive...

  13. Howdy all

    CRNA2BKY replied to Toey's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Welcome Brian, and congrat's on starting your ADN program in the Fall. Being that your wife is a nurse, I'm sure she can give you lots of good hints for studying and clinicals. The main advice I have...

  14. Non-nursing degree (low GPA/stats) to accelerated BSN program?

    CRNA2BKY replied to excbsn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with all the posts, and there is another thing to consider. The program I am in will look at your total GPA or the GPA of the last 60 credit hours taken, whichever makes your GPA look the...

  15. Anyone else waiting until they pass boards...

    CRNA2BKY replied to LindseyLou2222's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I graduate in May 2008, but I'm going to start job hunting over the Christmas break, around December & January. I want to have a job when I graduate, and I'm afraid of not getting a spot in a...

  16. new nurse--should i start working in med/surg first??

    CRNA2BKY replied to bubba04's topic in California Nursing

    My opinion? Start wherever you want to. I am going to graduate in less than a year, and I am going to go into an ICU. Wherever you go, in whatever department you get hired into, there will be a...

  17. share your fears..

    CRNA2BKY replied to kasia2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sounds like this list could apply equally to anyone in any major. People have many apprehensions about school. People worry about passing their classes, about the perception of "looking stupid" (this...

  18. Nursing Shortage? Yeah right...

    CRNA2BKY replied to Luvelyone's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience. It is very difficult to find jobs as an LPN in my area as well, and I think any school that tells you it's a good idea to get the LPN first may be acting a...

  19. Help!This just isn't fair.

    CRNA2BKY replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My motto: If there's a problem, there's a solution. With some effort searching, a solution will present itself. If you want to be a nurse bad enough, then you may have to apply to other programs, and...

  20. Associate or BSN ?

    CRNA2BKY replied to ICUr_Scrubs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would highly recommend an accelerated BSN (ABSN) program. I also want to become a CRNA, and the ABSN program allows me to reach my goals the fastest. You will need a BSN to apply for a masters...

  21. ABSN program survey question

    CRNA2BKY posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm currently in an ABSN program. This is the 3rd ABSN class the university has had. I don't think the teachers have the ABSN experience to taylor their class towards the ABSN students. All of our...

  22. Aspiring Nurses: Why not Med School??

    CRNA2BKY replied to muurman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Actually, there is not a lot of overlap between the course required for medical school, and the courses required for many nursing schools: Medical schools require (all require at least the following...

  23. ABSN program survey question

    CRNA2BKY replied to CRNA2BKY's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Looking at it from this point, I can see the schools perspective. Thanks for the input. That is why I like this website...because I can freely ask questions and get different opinions. I am always...

  24. Three Bad Things

    CRNA2BKY replied to Ilovewaiting's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My condolences to you also for your loss. I know that with your loss, your own health health problem, and not being accepted to the school, this must be a very, very difficult time for you. Take one...

  25. ABSN program survey question

    CRNA2BKY replied to CRNA2BKY's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I totally agree that writing papers is a part of college, and getting practice at writing papers is needed. That is why schools require English, History, Psychology, Sociology, and a variety of other...
