  1. Advantage to chiropractic degree?

    AbeFrohman replied to pamchris's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Don't chiropractors take classes like gross anatomy? If you did well there then it will look good. And yes they look at all your grades but divide them up like undergrad GPA, science GPA, last 60...

  2. Would this be looked less favorably upon by CRNA admissions?

    AbeFrohman replied to mednoob's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Only some schools will take an RN with a BS in a related science. These are usually schools that grant a masters of science in anesthesia or something similar, as opposed to an MSN with anesthesia...

  3. Can't do anything right

    AbeFrohman replied to prinsessa's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Everyone has this feeling, especially in the beginning. I never worked in LTC, but I imagine it's worse than where I worked. If no one was harmed, just let it roll. Efficiency comes with time. Nursing...

  6. Acute/critical care requirements

    AbeFrohman replied to n1cktm's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You can go straight to an ICU with just your RN, if the unit will have you. Average all depends on the if you want mean, median, or mode. The mean is 5 years experience, but that is offset by people...

  7. Curiousity about CRNA students gender ratio

    AbeFrohman replied to mkhoaja's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    There is definitely an unofficial male quote in undergrad, but no such thing in anesthesia. Plenty of male

  8. Regulatory Autonomy

    AbeFrohman replied to cruisin_woodward's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Remember in debating, you just have to prove the other side wrong. Let me ask this question. How can nurse practitioners with DNPs be able to claim, at this current time, that they should be...

  11. UAB's FNP program - stats?

    AbeFrohman replied to sweetER's topic in Post Graduate Students

    No, the didatic portion was not harder, and by the time I would've made it to clinicals I would have had enough experience to function well there too. But for those who never work as a nurse it may be...

  12. Will NP salary increase b/c of health care reform

    AbeFrohman replied to Wed03's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Reimbursement will increase due to the non-discrimination clause stating the same fee for the same service of non-physicians. So and independent NP could make more money. But if they decrease how much...

  14. How import is statistics knowledge?

    AbeFrohman replied to SoundofMusic's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    It's not. If it was, researchers wouldn't have statisticians. Even you do understand it, stats can be manipulated to say whatever you want. Know what a good confidence level is, numbers to treat, and...

  15. UAB's FNP program - stats?

    AbeFrohman replied to sweetER's topic in Post Graduate Students

    AbeFrohman replied to coffee and toast's topic in Post Graduate Students

    2025 is our goal, and nothing is set in

  17. Do I really want to become a CRNA?

    AbeFrohman replied to wildfire2098's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    All that and 100x more. Don't even think about what to study for CRNA school until after accepted. Just study hard when you go over critical care in nursing school and you'll get a good foundation....

  18. Working full time as a CRNA student

    AbeFrohman replied to dmtaylor3's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I know, firsthand, of only one person who worked a regular schedule all the way through. He had a baylor position and only worked Saturday and Sunday. So not full time really, but he was paid full...

  19. Differences (Educative/Clinical) between NP & PA

    AbeFrohman replied to jstuben's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So have a single lecture on handwashing, disinfectants, and antiseptics, then move the frak on. Dr. Semmelweis discovered that medical students washing their hands with chlorinated solution dropped...

  21. NP to CRNA

    AbeFrohman replied to NYRN05's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    As long as you have the ICU experience, no one will look down on you for having you NP. Most will consider it a plus, but (as you probably already know) it is still a good idea to get your CCRN and...

  22. FNP vs Acute care NP vs CRNA

    AbeFrohman replied to Leanne62499's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    CRNA can build a relationship if you desire. It won't be on the level of an NP, but if you are motivated enough to get a job where you preop and postop evaluate your patients then you can get to know...

  24. NP Salaries Realistically and grades!

    AbeFrohman replied to ncaru01's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Since when is NP school 4 1/2 years? If your talking doing part time that slow, the DNP would probably add more time than that. Many schools have a limHattiehat it can take no longer than 5 years part...

  25. SRNA to FNP

    AbeFrohman replied to guest416560's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Oh and those are accurate salaries. Why are you curious about them if it's not about the
