    zozzy777 replied to zozzy777's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  2. any advice on working a strike?

    zozzy777 replied to Jennifer Couty's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Wow! I am shocked at some of the responses on this thread. For those of you who advise against it, who do you recommend taking care of the patients? What if it was your family member? Or what if...

    zozzy777 replied to ArkyCCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am in the process of doing the Wells Fargo loan for school and they say they send a letter to the school telling them how much the loan is for. It is not for certification or anything. Does anyone...

  6. Cleveland Clinic

    zozzy777 replied to tatarn2b2007's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hello to all the new grads or soon to be new grads. Most hospitals you will have to pay for parking. No matter where you work, so don't let that surprise you. Not all hospitals do rotating shifts,...

  7. Neurosurgical ICU or Medical ICU?

    zozzy777 replied to NSURN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am not a CRNA, but start school this August. I would go with the MICU. I have worked in both types of ICU's and the neurosurgical is very very specialized. I know several persons who have gotten...

  8. ICU Visiting Hours

    zozzy777 replied to LaRose's topic in MICU, SICU

    Most hospitals are going to open ICU hours. Some study somewhere said it was better for the families. As for me, I do not like it AT ALL!! I know I do some of my best work when families are out of...

    zozzy777 replied to srnabound3997's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Unless one had absolute proof they were denied entrance based on race, how can you say they were descriminated against? Maybe there are other reasons those schools didn't choose those students....

  13. I'm so disappointed. My hospital FIRED ME!!

    zozzy777 replied to hotomalis's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    I think it is an excellent idea to go to the press with your story!! Hospitals think they can treat nurses however they want and no one holds them accountable. And this nation wonders why there is a...

  15. New and Need HELP

    zozzy777 replied to kodum28's topic in Nursing Career

    You don't have to become a CNA or LPN to get your RN. It would help if we knew if you were already out of high school and thinking college, or already in the work force doing something else....

    zozzy777 replied to ChocoholicRN's topic in General Nursing

    zozzy777 replied to girlie300000's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hi. It really depends on what you like. CVICU is typically a post open heart surgery unit where they recover the hearts right out of the OR. A CCU is usually the post MI, bad CHF, balloon pumps, a...

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

    zozzy777 replied to hojimma's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    This really cracks me up!! I have been a traveler for 8 years and I have never made, or know any travelers who have made what a CRNA makes. If you work really, really hard, you might clear 100,000 a...

  20. Need advice from experienced nurses...

    zozzy777 replied to ChocoholicRN's topic in General Nursing

    zozzy777 replied to missAmanda's topic in General Nursing

  23. Is 2 Per Diem Jobs unrealistic?

    zozzy777 replied to brighella's topic in General Nursing

    I would say it is not unreasonable at all. It will give you more options if census at one place fluctuates and doesn't need you very much for a while. Plus, if you hate one of the jobs, you will...

  24. Question of the day

    zozzy777 posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist
