   AnesthesiaSlider replied to tjones57's topic in General Nursing

   I'd go as far as to say that you cannot trust the phone reps at all. They may or may not be correct in what they tell you. The reason? When you call you are not speaking to an employee of HRSA. It is...

2. Nurse Corps Loan Repayment 2016 Cycle

   AnesthesiaSlider replied to tjones57's topic in General Nursing

   I think I've given up hope. While my facility score is 18, my D:I ratio is only 115%. Not an NP. Not faculty. No credit check. Looks like all that "trying to be responsible" by turning down loans so...

   A note on Prodigy's "PACES" program: It is a great idea and a lot of work has been put in to it. But not enough hard work. It looks good, and you'll like the way it works. Questions are good and...

7. CRNAs in NM

   AnesthesiaSlider replied to DM74LA's topic in General Nursing

   I know this is an old dead thread, but I wanted to post to make sure that no one read it and got the wrong impression. There are plenty of CRNAs in NM. The NMANA was formed in 1956 with 37 members,...

   AnesthesiaSlider replied to JoeAnaesthesia's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

   You have to round out your application. If you are weak on academics, you need more experience. You have great transcripts and test scores? You will find programs that will interview you even if you...

    AnesthesiaSlider replied to trainer2070's topic in General Nursing

    The above post is fairly accurate, but I have to disagree about the climate. It's cool to cold in the winter (snows 1 to 4 days a year in the city, almost always melts within 48 hours....
