  1. VCU Interview

    kirbybunny replied to Putu2Sleep's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Congrats on the interview. Were you sent a letter or email? Just curious. Also, you stated you work in a large level 1 CVICU in VA. Do you work at

  2. Which ICU is BEST for Nurse Anesthesia???

    kirbybunny replied to SIGMACHIGUY's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    While I usually agree that broad ICU experience will help you, I have to take offense when you say "you will never pass the CCRN with only CVICU experience". Absolutely not true. I have only worked...

  3. When EXACTLY does your ICU experience begin???

    kirbybunny replied to SIGMACHIGUY's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    From reading this and other nurse anesthesia forums, it seems that schools do not really count the time you are in orientation. But the best way to know for sure is to contact the schools you are...

  4. Lasalle, Montgomery Hosp. Program??

    kirbybunny replied to mocha12's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I would just check with the PD there. I seem to remember them stressing in the interview they wanted them DONE, that's why classes are chosen so early. I could be wrong.... ~

  5. Lasalle, Montgomery Hosp. Program??

    kirbybunny replied to mocha12's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    kirbybunny replied to jfk6668's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  7. Lasalle, Montgomery Hosp. Program??

    kirbybunny replied to mocha12's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  20. ? about coding the post Open Heart pt???

    kirbybunny replied to rickard's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    So if a post CABG patient goes asystolic, what do you do? Prep for an open chest, but no compressions in the meantime? I understand if it is your policy, but it makes no sense to me! ~

    There is a person on Ebay who sells anesthesia reference materials - med info cards and clipboards. Just search "crna" on Ebay and you should find him. I did not order these materials, so not sure...
