  1. What cities have the highest ICU nurse demand?

    AnesthesiaBound replied to Roland's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I have to agree with TraumaNurse. During my interview, they were more interested in the types of patients I took care of, not where I was working. If you can secure a job and cross-train in several...

  2. What cities have the highest ICU nurse demand?

    AnesthesiaBound replied to Roland's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    As to the rent, I would recommend working as a traveller. You get your rent paid for, plus you get paid a higher salary than your average joe. But, I assume from your quote you haven't starting your...

  3. What cities have the highest ICU nurse demand?

    AnesthesiaBound replied to Roland's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I'm not sure exactly what you're are looking for in a hospital, but I do a good bit of traveling up in New Jersey. Speaking from experience, they are unbelievably understaffed. There is probably no...

  4. Day in the life of a SRNA

    AnesthesiaBound posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Nilepoc had a semi-weekly thread I chanced upon where he talked about his experiences in anesthesia school. Nilepoc, this is really interesting for those of us about to start school. Any chance...

  5. Laryngeal Anomalies-sources of info

    AnesthesiaBound replied to deke's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    deke, unfortunately i don't have any info on the laryngeal anomalies. i just wanted to say that my thoughts are with your dad. I hope he pulls through and comes out stronger than ever.

  6. Gonzaga said yes!!!

    AnesthesiaBound replied to kestrel1121's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Congrats. I really thought you handled yourself well in the interview and I guess now it showed. I personally think you will have a lot less pressure in the next interview. If you could handle that...

  7. Mtsu

    AnesthesiaBound replied to JSB's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I am lucky enough to have just been accepted into their program, starting in August. I know 2 people in the class ahead that say the school is incredible. The atmosphere is second to none. You are...

  8. I got in!!!

    AnesthesiaBound replied to jewelcutt's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Congratulations and best of luck in school. Enjoy your freedom while you can.

  9. 1st Interview done(Need Cyberhugs)

    AnesthesiaBound replied to kestrel1121's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    KESTRELL1121 congratulations on handling that interview well and standing your ground. Personally, I wouldn't have done so well. I've only had one interview (MTSA) and it was thankfully nothing like...

  10. Propofol

    AnesthesiaBound replied to czipp's topic in Gastroenterology

    I honestly don't think that the nurses that are pushing propofol ( as well as other sedation meds) are listening to the arguments made by yoga, athomas, mchugh, etc. There's a lot to consider when...

  11. 44 Years and still Going Strong

    AnesthesiaBound replied to yoga crna's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Yoga, you are a true inspiration to all of us aspiring CRNAs Congrats on your anniversary and thanks for all of the words of wisdom. I have enjoyed all of your posts.

  12. BSN completion to CRNA-Anyone else?

    AnesthesiaBound replied to Ben@kc's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I went through the online program at South Alabama. It worked out really well. You have to be highly self-motivated to do it and do it well. There's nobody pushing you along and you can easily get...

    AnesthesiaBound replied to New CCU RN's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Good response Arkgolfer. In my experience, there are a multitude of older people on TCAs and/or BNDs - either for depression, itching, etc, etc. Something to think about.

  14. Srnas &crnas--advice Please!!

    AnesthesiaBound replied to jebain's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Congratulations on your acceptance. I, luckily, just got accepted also. I'm currently looking over M&M. It's very good, detailed, but not over your head. I'm planning on reading over the basic...

  15. CRNA school policy

    AnesthesiaBound replied to alphozo's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    In my case, similar to yours, I think a poor start can prove to be a positive. Doing well from here out (straight A's if possible) will prove how much you want this. It shows that once you set your...

  16. Anesthesia school here I come

    AnesthesiaBound replied to gooser's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Way to go, Gooser. Congratulations and best of luck.

  17. Say it's not so

    AnesthesiaBound replied to yoga crna's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I sincerely hope that this is a rarity among students. I will be starting school this summer and personally, can barely sit still. I was the same way after graduating as a nurse. True, you get tired...

  18. CRNA Debate from www.studentdoctor.net

    AnesthesiaBound replied to meandragonbrett's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I must say, that was an amazing read. I've been doing some research and have heard of the big conflict between MDAs and CRNAs. I've just never seen it with that much venom. I, personally, have never...

  19. Ask a question about CRNA and MDA

    AnesthesiaBound replied to rhp123's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    rhp123, in your response, your future life seems very important to you - especially your immediate future. please consider that from where you are, you are looking at 2-4 years for your BSN (depending...

  20. what are "the sciences"

    AnesthesiaBound replied to piper_for_hire's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I have to agree with all of the responses here. In my interview, one of the interviewers keyed specifically on my science grades and wanted explanations for any less-than excellent grades. I've got...

  21. Ask a question about CRNA and MDA

    AnesthesiaBound replied to rhp123's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    For the first part, CRNAs provide 2/3 of the anesthesia in the country today. With the current trend for more cost-effective means of healthcare, the importance and prominence of anesthetists can only...

  22. Hello

    AnesthesiaBound replied to Tina CTICU RN's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    From what I've gathered from this site, different schools interview in different ways. Some are heavily based on clinical situations, meds, etc. Some just want to know about you, and your experiences....

  25. Should I retake SCIENCES??

    AnesthesiaBound replied to melrey11's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    cue93, I took most of my prerequisites for my BSN at Louisiana State University. They have a distance learning section that you can take undergraduate classes, maybe some upper level stuff also. It's...
