  1. Per Diem positions, Do they help or hurt chances of getting in?

    iLovemyJackRT replied to manny1222's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I don't think it will. I have worked in the ICU float pool the last 8 months, but just got a job full time in surgical-trauma because I was worried about that too. But since you have full worked full...

  2. What does a CRNA do exactly?

    iLovemyJackRT replied to al_e135's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It's very frustrating to see your posts below. This one saying you plan to "work 1-2 years before applying to CRNA school." And then here, your asking what a CRNA does ?!?!?! Yet another undergrad...

    iLovemyJackRT posted a topic in Agency Nurses

  5. Has anyone taken an online pathopysiology class?

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

    Millie, can you give me more information about the online patho you took through U. of Utah. I've been in contact with the school and am having a hard time find the class at the university.

  6. New to camp nursing and need some guidance

    iLovemyJackRT posted a topic in Camp

    Hi everyone. I've never done camp nursing but am really interested in it. I have a schedule that allows it because I only do agency and PRN nursing. I was on the campnurse.org website but didn't see...

  8. Being in the 'critical care float pool'

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

    LOL, no not 100k. I was saying that's what I'll probably owe when I'm done with CRNA school. I only have about 15,000 of my undergrad. Thanks for the advice. Do you mind sharing where you applied

  9. Being in the 'critical care float pool'

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

    iLovemyJackRT replied to kateyes7's topic in Travel

    Hey Kateyes, do you mind telling me what agency you are traveling with? I'm interested in the LA area, but not for quite a while and I'm an ICU nurse. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

  13. CCRN Test

    iLovemyJackRT replied to luvmylab's topic in MICU, SICU

    What materials did you use to prepare? And, how long did you prepare before you took the test? I'm sorry you didn't pass. Try not to get to down. RN's on my unit who've been icu nurses for 10+ years...

  14. Has anyone heard from Columbia University?

    iLovemyJackRT replied to SICUTOCRNA's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks Cindy. That was very kind of you to share your stats. I appreciate it.

  15. Freaking out about my CCRN..need a little boost of confidence

    iLovemyJackRT posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Okay. I set the date. Feb 13th, 9am. This has been an ongoing study process since August. No joke. I would do real well with studying for a week, then not pick up my book again for two weeks. Well,...

  16. Just a little night shift venting about day shift...

    iLovemyJackRT posted a topic in General Nursing

    A few things that I don't understand and that bother me to no end. If day shift shows up at 7:05-7:10, it's excusable and no one says anything because "they had to wake up so early," and it's morning,...

  17. Columbia Direct Entry???

    iLovemyJackRT replied to NHGN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    "get over yourself," is a bit harsh I'd say. We're all

    iLovemyJackRT replied to JadamR15's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Can anyone tell me how many practice questions the pass CCRN dvd offers? I've been studying a lot and am taking mid Feb. I've been using the AACN book and a springhouse review, but am really looking...

  19. Columbia Direct Entry???

    iLovemyJackRT replied to NHGN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Can't say I have any experiences with friends like that. But yeah, I'd be "secretly" annoyed too. Everyone on this website knows how hard you have to work to get the prereqs to get in...It can be...

  20. Has anyone heard from Columbia University?

    iLovemyJackRT replied to SICUTOCRNA's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Cindy, Do you mind me asking your stats that got you accepted to Columbia. It's one of the schools I'm interested in. You can PM me if you'd like. I'd really appreciate it.

  21. New nurse needs help moving to Philly!

    iLovemyJackRT replied to Scooby484k's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I agree about living in Manayunk if you like going out. If you don't, I wouldn't suggest Manayunk. I lived there for two years in college and it wore me out. I would never move back. The commute is...

    iLovemyJackRT posted a topic in Illinois Nursing

    Hi everyone, This is a question unrelated to nursing, but I figured the best place to ask. I'm from Kansas City and have never been there, but am going for a weekend in January. We are staying at the...

    iLovemyJackRT replied to iLovemyJackRT's topic in Illinois Nursing

    That's so funny that you said The Signature Room because that's where we made dinner reservations for on Saturday night, which is his birthday. The menu looked pretty decent. I think the other night...
