  1. PA to CRNA

    Voodoo7 replied to mongo73's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Seriously? Just google what you typed above! Columbia's School of Nursing web site is not hard to find. It's nice you are helping your wife, but come

  2. Any other alternates at UNE?

    Voodoo7 replied to TraumaSICU's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The OP was talking about the CRNA program, not the BSN. Hope you hear good

  3. Less competative admissions

  4. Less competative admissions

    Voodoo7 replied to TxNurseRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Perhaps your thread title should have been "What Can I Do To Make Myself More Competitive". My advice is to get all the certifications you can, like get the CMC and the CSC to go along with your CCRN....

  5. Mountain State University CRNA. Anybody attending or know anything about?

    Voodoo7 replied to Jordana's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    They are currently on probation, and not allowed to admit a class until the probation is lifted. I know people in the program - my advice from listening to them is to go

  6. TCU Fall '09

    Voodoo7 replied to gasmaster's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The OP is talking about the Nurse Anesthesia program at

  7. Advice Please

    Voodoo7 replied to desitiger's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Well, it depends. How much experience do you have? In what kind of ICU? Because of your GPA issues, you will need more than 1 year to be competitive. Have you done extensive shadowing? Do you know a...

  8. Accepted FNP student at UCLA?

    Voodoo7 replied to lilboboxox's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Ummmm...the OP was from 2006. Don't think you'll see him/her there! Congrats on getting into

  9. Do you have to take Nursing Research and Theory Classes?

    Voodoo7 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You'd be hard pressed to find a person who loves these classes, but if this is one of your major reasons you are thinking CRNA over NP all I can say

  10. Need your advice, im in nursing school now...

    Voodoo7 replied to Shopperella's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I got into VCU, and I did not have a stats class. I echo the recommendation to meet with the PD of the program. Good

  11. Barking up the wrong tree?

    Voodoo7 replied to 4amcoffee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Jo Dirt, As you have not yet completed a major part of CRNA school admission requirements (ICU experience), let me tell you something you might hear frequently in the unit - YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT...

  12. Does LTAC count as critical care?

    Voodoo7 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    I really don't see how you can call Karen's post helpful while discounting the others. I don't think LTAC is just a "nursing home" and I am sure it takes specialized skills to work there. However, if...

  13. Does LTAC count as critical care?

    Voodoo7 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    OK, maybe offense wasn't the right word. But your "Thanks for your compassionate answer" reeked of passive aggressiveness. It seemed a strange thing to post to someone who succinctly answered your...

  14. To BSN, or not to BSN... your opinions please.

    Voodoo7 replied to rokclimbah's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You would be wrong. Some programs accept a BS in a "related science". No BSN needed. The OP should check with the schools he/she is interested

  15. Does LTAC count as critical care?

    Voodoo7 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    If you really take that much offense to what cessnadriver wrote, you are gonna have a long road ahead of you in anesthesia school. He/She answered your question, no frills attached. Sorry if the...
