  1. Baghdad er

    Corvette Guy replied to berry's topic in Emergency

    Another error of neglect was the lack of time mentioned on all the Iraqi civilian patients treated by the 86th CSH. In fact, the majority of patients are not troops but civilians. Nonetheless, I give...

  2. Baghdad er

    Corvette Guy replied to berry's topic in Emergency

    PLEASE, keep this Thread as non-political as possible. This Thread [iMHO] should be about the great work the AMEDD men & women do over in Iraq, and not about ....... AMEDD = Army Medical...

  7. Essentials of Critical Care Orientation via AACN online...

    Corvette Guy replied to Corvette Guy's topic in MICU, SICU

    Look at it like this... this type of course is good for theory based learning. IMHO, the course gives you good knowledge for a better understanding to use towards direct patient care, rather than as...

    Hey Miranda, love your avatar! I grew in the Austin [TX] Hill Country where bluebonnets

  9. Will Military take an ADN/Diploma nurse with BSc. in another field?

    Corvette Guy replied to sunnyjohn's topic in Government, Military

    Nope! If you want to be an officer in the AMEDD as an RN in the Army Nurse Corps on active duty you have to have at least a BSN. No way around it. Once you have completed your MSN, passed your Nursing...

  10. Polling our male nurses: What area of nursing are you currently in right now?

    Corvette Guy replied to Thunderwolf's topic in Men in Nursing

    Yep, most male RNs seem to lean towards the technical side of nursing, i.e. ER, ICU, , Stepdown/PCU, CRNA ... however, nothing wrong with a male nurse in Med/Surg, or any of the other

  11. Navy Vs. Army Nursing?

    Corvette Guy replied to ThePino's topic in Government, Military

    Agreed! LOL, it is the Nurse Corps where males are still in the minority [just to a lesser degree than in civilian

  12. Navy Vs. Army Nursing?

    Corvette Guy replied to ThePino's topic in Government, Military

  13. Navy Vs. Army Nursing?

    Corvette Guy replied to ThePino's topic in Government, Military

    IMHO, just a little intense rivalry among military guys. I don't think any disrespect was intended. Often times I'll hear Soldiers in casual conversation talking down the Marine Corps, but I love...

  14. Polling our male nurses: What area of nursing are you currently in right now?

    Corvette Guy replied to Thunderwolf's topic in Men in Nursing

    Were you a Combat Medic in the AMEDD? BTW, if you found Med/Surg boring most likely will find the OR boring, too. I'd bet you'd like working in the ICU, or

    Outstanding training

  16. Navy Vs. Army Nursing?

    Corvette Guy replied to ThePino's topic in Government, Military

    The Marines, by far, are the most squared away with outstanding espirit de corps! However, no one in the military has a free pass to speak in public on political matters. Plus, the AMEDD is an...

  17. Navy Vs. Army Nursing?

    Corvette Guy replied to ThePino's topic in Government, Military

    FYI, me thinks an O-3 out ranks a SNCO. IMHO, you may want to stand down yourself, on the side of military courtesy. No, an Army Nurse will most likely not go out on point with the Grunts [term of...

    Corvette Guy replied to Darth Nightingale's topic in Government, Military

    No, a TPU Soldier is assigned to a specific Reserve Unit that meets one weekend a month [plus, will do the min. 12 days AT w/Unit, or other approved Army training]. Therefore, the TPU Soldier is...

  23. MALE Nurse, Female Police Officer, Female Dr.

    Corvette Guy replied to likemike's topic in Male Nursing Students

    When I hear talk of nursing as a womans field I cringe. My distaste for such talk is certainly not against my fellow sisters in nursing, nor against you [Kevin0507]. The correlation between nursing as...

  24. Deployments in military nursing

    Corvette Guy replied to mistyval's topic in Government, Military

    No, you need to see a standard Army Recruiter and let it be known your already an LPN and only interested in 91WM6 MOS. In the Army you will do more as an LPN compared to civilian side. Check out this...
