    Businessman replied to SN Mommy's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Businessman replied to Uberman5000's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Some schools may not require it, but the boards requirements are the same. The more you know, the better prepared you'll be. The basis of any pathophys book is biochemistry. I am a Wolford student,...

  6. anesthesia and math....

    Businessman replied to ECU_CRNA2B's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I'll try to simplify the concepts: Always use the int'l units of measure (kg and liters). If you're using mL, then you should be using grams. Q: How many miligrams of Lido are found in 40 mL of a 1%...

  7. Wolford College Anyone??

    Businessman replied to SRNAtobe's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Just be yourself. The interviewing committee is very friendly. No outrageous clinical questions. Good

  8. All CRNA practice

    Businessman replied to movinsouth's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    From a professional point of view, you should be fine, as the school prepares you to work on your own in most situations. When it comes to choosing a place to work, other criteria might have some...

  9. CRNA's in the U.K!

    Businessman replied to jjjez's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  10. Wolford College Anyone??

    Businessman replied to SRNAtobe's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am fortunate to have saved some money, but if you count on GI bill entirely, be prepared for delays. Start looking at private education loans (there was a thread with a ton of info). They will be...

  11. CRNA's in the U.K!

    Businessman replied to jjjez's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    In health care, as in many other fields, the market drives change. NHS will go towards CRNA's, simply because they are a cheaper alternative to anesthesiologists. The long track record of the US...

  12. University of South Carolina

    Businessman replied to USCARN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You're right - USC does not have a anesthesiology residency program. I was thinking of MUSC in Charleston ... In my case, though, having applied to 4 other schools and having seen all 4 open and...

  13. University of South Carolina

    Businessman replied to USCARN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    USC was one of the schools I've applied to, but I'm very dissapointed by them so far. I've called twice to make sure they've received all the materials, and the lady on the other end was very bored...

    Businessman replied to bwt02's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    As one who has a business degree, I can tell you that things are not that clear cut. 1099 positions are for people who better know how to maximize the tax deductions, without raising flags with the...

  15. Frustrated!! Anyone heard Anything from or about Youngstown Ohio Crna program?

    Businessman replied to jaslo98's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Dismissing a program outright for being slow in communication, it's a bit of a knee-jerk reaction. This time of the year it's graduation time for BS and MSN. Ask "Vinnysca" about the program - he's a...

  19. Anyone invited to interview at Wolford?

    Businessman replied to ICUDOUCME?'s topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Sherry, The "session" is between 9:30 - 12:00. As the letter states, the actual interview lasts about 15 min. I'm assuming we'll take turns at interviews/orientation. We'll probably cross paths in...

    Decisions on who will be interviewed are being made as we speak. In theory, they should have a list ready by last Friday, 4/14, per Gilbert Chang, dir. of admissions. Give it a week or so.
