  1. How old were you when you started CRNA school?

    I'll be 32 this August when I start.
  2. Is it still financially worth it to become CRNA?

    Base RN pay in the rural South east is ~20-25/hr. The hospital I work for pays CRNAs ~150k/yr. I'm about to start CRNA school. I have punched the #s and it will be very "financially worth it". This past year I managed to earn around 85k, but I worked...
  3. Employer paying off Student Loans?

    Thank you for your insight.
  4. Employer paying off Student Loans?

    My current hospital CEO has verbally offered a stipend while in school. Though, I have nothing in writing yet. Also, I've punched the numbers and I may not need the stipend, but it would be nice to have a job lined up for when I'm finished. My wife a...
  5. Florida State University Panama City Nurse Anesthesia Program

    Accepted verbal offer. Now, if they'll just get approved. My optimistic side is saying that Gooding operated since '69 & I'm sure they'll get the accreditation. But, reading these posts aren't doing my pessimistic side any favors. Hope to see yo...
  6. Georgia Potential CRNA Students

    Not this year. If I do not get accepted this year, I will apply at GRU and alternates next year.
  7. Georgia Potential CRNA Students

    Applied to GRU. Have interview in a couple of weeks. Excited, scared all at the same time.
  8. South Georgia Medical Center

    I'm not 100% b/c I do not work there, but I do work close. The payrate for starting RNs in South Ga is +/- $20/hr.
  9. Did or do you work as a CNA in a hospital

    Pretty much what he said. I worked on a Med/Surg floor for 2 years while in my ADN program. Usually, there were 2-3 CNA's. Being a guy, you will be called on to do the heavy lifting. I think my time as a CNA was a great learning experience while in ...
  10. Nurse needing job help!!!

    Phoebe Putney in Albany, SGMC in Valdosta, Tift General in Tifton, Colquitt Regional in Moultrie, Archbold in Thomasville all have RN jobs posted, but that's the opposite side of the state for you. Good Luck!
  11. LPN vs ASN vs BSN vs EMT

    Need a job quick? EMT basic can be had in a few months (6ish i think). LPN is usually 1-1.5 yr. ASN 2 yr, BSN 4 yr. Which is best for you? You have to answer that one yourself.
  12. GA ATT

    Get all of your paper work in ASAP. I had mine in a week prior to graduation. Had my ATT 2-3 weeks later.
  13. Darton LPN to RN hopeful....

    I graduated may 11 from the traditional program. I liked the school. There were a handful that commuted such as you. Good luck.
  14. Male nurse crying!!!

    I've only cried one time while working in the Hospital. I became an RN in June '11. I was a CNA for 2 years prior to that on a Med/Surg floor. One day we had a patient that was on the floor c/o DIB. Unknown to me at that time, this pt was terminal an...
  15. Male RN in maternity

    My OB clinical instructors were great. They would round prior to our arrival and directly as the pt's if they would mind having a male student in with them. My First rotation I went into a C-section of twins. My second rotation I was supporting the m...
