  1. Mandatory Flu Vaccines- How do you feel?

    lml33 replied to Snowbird17's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Also, informed consent and full disclosure goes out the window! We are not fully informed. That is why medicine is science. It is a "practice". We need to stand up for what our conscience and...

    lml33 replied to Snowbird17's topic in Disaster Preparation

    lml33 replied to Nupe4sleep's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I feel exactly the same. I have been a CRNA since 2006. I am miserable at my current job. My prior job was great. I had tons of autonomy. I left the job that I loved to move back home, closer to my...

    lml33 replied to Metron's topic in Health, Stress Management

    lml33 replied to jewelcutt's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Think about it. What is the average time period between ripping the cuff and extubation?...Seconds. Will all of the air diffuse out of that small lumen between the cuff itself and the syringe...

    lml33 replied to kkrnkk's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I can only imagine what my clinical experience will involve. I will begin clinical in January, but I am taking online classes to get them out of the way. Advanced Physiology is interesting, but I...

  10. Related to shivering question

    lml33 posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    During labor, I experienced the same thing. I was shaking/shivering uncontrollably, but I was not cold. This was during labor, but before the epidural. What is the pathophysiology behind this? Does it...

  12. What about being a CRNA is so interesting?

    lml33 replied to marilynmom's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I chose nursing anesthesia because it is the best APN field when you're always "getting your hands dirty". I enjoy the clinical aspects. I never wanted a management position. I just thought the NP...

  13. inserting invasive lines in school

    lml33 replied to MTM's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Maybe CRNAs are limited in their scope of practice because of other's ignorance. I think that other health care professionals do not realize the autonomy that CRNAs posess.

  14. For those of you that are a nurse and those of you who call yourself a nurse!!

    Some states require that all health care professionals wear identification badges when interacting with patients. Staff are to have their educational status and training on their badges. When a CNA...

  15. Regret not going to medical school?

    lml33 replied to jfpruitt's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    It seems to me that CRNAs end up with more money in the long run. If you want the doctor title, get your PhD. It's only a couple more years.
