Does anyone know if U. of South Alabama looks at the full package when deciding on entrance into their nursing program or is it simply gpa? At the end of summer when I apply, I will only have a 3.2 overall gpa. However, at the time I apply, I will ha...

A couple months ago I posted a question asking if it were possible for someone to more or less enjoy depression [or for depression to feel like a comfort zone]. Rather than anyone answering the question, all I received were personal experiences and e...

If you wind up taking out 3rd party loans like SallieMae in addition to the federal loans then yes. I'm doing it to help me be able to live in this city and attend college.

Didn't the U. of Toronto just introduce the first ever CRNA program?

Even in Illinois, it doesn't have be an anesthesiologist... it can be any MD. She could always work in another facility... in a dental office, a CRNA can supply the service and have the dentist sign off the paperwork.

I knew I wanted something in healthcare, and I liked that nursing is very horizontal... if you dislike one specialty, you can always swap to another... OR to Med/Surg to CVICU or with more schooling to anestheisa to practitioner to flight nursing... ...

ADN and then bridge to BSN (possibly online)

Draw out concept maps showing the relationship between a number of those terms. Conceptualizing things makes it a lot easier for myself. I'm sure others have their ways too.

When I was in ap2, I drew out a lot of the system myself.... draw it out and write conceptual processes out next to it.

Montgomery, Alabama is in a shortage.. 40+ RN openings.

Quite a harsh commentary there. OP, I'm right where you're at. I'm a pre-nursing student using nursing school as a stepping stone to nurse anesthesia. I can tell you the main reason I'm going for it is a fascination with the way anesthesia works... i...

Mercer requires a BSN... check their requirements again. "Applicants are required to have a bachelor's degree in nursing"

Perhaps this is just 'crude advice,' but what keeps me motivated is when I see SOME of the nurses around hospitals. I think, "if this dumb*** can do it, then I definitely can." Again, crude advice, please no one take offense.

I'm agreeing with the above stated. 1 unit of water is at 1 volume 1 unit of ice is at 1.09... volume 96mL of water becoming ice [96x1.09...] is ~105mL which will burst the sealed 100mL graduated cylinder. -------------------------------------------...

There might be a little basic chem in it, but don't worry, the chemistry doesn't get much more complex further in the course... You have a full weekend to study up. Here's your chance.

My microbiology course was like that. Great professor, but it was his last semester teaching, so he just ran through everything real quick. I listened to the lecture in class without taking notes, and I wrote definitions and important concepts in my ...

Just be very appreciative that you're getting this sort of an opportunity in college.

Are you talking about the thing like 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d........

Not that I'm aware of... without sounding rude, I pray they don't have one. With the AANA fighting to show the equality of CRNAs to MDAs, having any portion of the CRNA program conducted online would be a huge step in the wrong direction.

I'm not even in NS yet... however this is something I realized about myself a while back. Depression is awful. However, perhaps some people have been depressed for such a time that being depressed and having the blues becomes their comfort zone. They...

btw OP... Ramstein is an awesome area! K-town, Kaiserslautern, is very Americanized, so it won't be difficult to get around there.

Actually no. ^^^ U. of Toronto has just started working towards developing nurse anesthetists: http://bloomberg.nursing.utoronto.ca/CASPP/Anaesthesia_Care_for_Nurse_Practitioners.htm Students must pass an AA graduate exam [assuming that's the only cl...

Although depression and burnout happen in many healthcare fields, supposedly it's more frequent in dentistry. I'm sure you've heard that before though. http://jada.ada.org/cgi/content/full/135/6/788

Aside from the topic of the ad [drugs], why would any religious affiliation be allowed to advertise in a journal for nursing? Idk, I just don't think that's the right place for evangelizing.

Yea, all members have had access for a while.. maybe one month?
