I would recommend looking into schools with as little clinical sites as possible and examining those clinical sites because even within the same program the clinical experience can vary widely because some students get lucky to go to certain sites. S...

How are you able to do clinicals in an online format? Are you in a nursing program?

there is no reason for a student to show up to clinical, being non-essential staff and most likely not even being provided an N95 mask. Those in the hospital, especially those intubating as we do, are at a high risk of catching this virus and spreadi...

Whoever draws Up the drugs which is never the MD

What is the big deal? It’s not difficult to push indiction drugs anyway. There’s not much skill to do such a thing. I’ve pushed my drugs, the CRNA has pushed drugs for me, and the MD has pushed drugs for me. It’s not a big deal at all

Good info. It’s great to read the student handbooks before deciding on a school and also finding out if they have the right to change the student handbook once you’re in the program.

It says later in the terms of service “No potentially libelous information about specific schools, instructors, or health care facilities/entities should be posted in these forums.” most negative things said about schools are “potentially libelous.” ...

Sure, if you have first hand current experience in the program. But most that bash other schools only go by what they heard. For example, I am in a program that used to accept 50 twice a year. They now only accept 25 twice a year. It wouldn't make se...

Because schools can change for the better or worse. Every student at almost any school could have bad things to say. I just don’t think random comments talking bad about a school is a good or helpful thing to do. I don’t think there are any CRNA m...

There are over a 100 programs in America. I'd suggest you ask what people consider the best programs instead of asking people which ones they think should be avoided. I don't think it is appropriate to ask or say such things about programs on a publi...

It is going to take about a year and a half before you feel at all comfortable in the ICU, especially as new grad. If you're crying like this, it may be that ICU is not for you. Just do med/surg, there is no shame in that. We need good med/surg nurse...

The only legitimate thing I've heard is how they accepted too many patients in the past, like 50 something. My class is 25 students including me and they said they now accept 30-35 students. My class is smaller because they gave very short notices pe...

You might as well say what you heard instead of indirectly bashing a program on a public forum, using words like last resort and horrified. I just started the program a few weeks ago it seems fine so far

Wolford, now Keiser, never was on probation. They were simply given extensions to get the new COA requirements to be regionally accredited. Now that they are under Keiser it should be fine. If you look on the COA website they are still accredited and...

yes the COA decides how many students each program can admit.

I need one but looking for a male roommate.

I am starting my masters degree and thinking about getting a PRN job. I was wondering what y'all thought about what is the best RN job that allows the time for one to study the most? night shift at SNF? day shift clinic? psych? hospice? home health? ...

They notified me by phone about the interview. For those asking about the interview, I received no clinical questions. Laid back and more get to know you and why you want to be a CRNA. They are very nice and welcoming, especially compared to the oth...

Sorry, I know this is a FGCU thread, but I will be going to Wolford (now Keiser) starting Aug 27 and looking for a roommate for 12 months in the Fort Myers area. I'm a 32 year old male. I can't find any of my fellow classmates. Send me a PM if you're...

I sent you a PM

Thanks! No they are still Masters

I got a call today from Keiser saying the transition has been completed and that I am accepted for the class starting August 20

A couple weeks ago the director said they are waiting in the final word from Keizer Univ. It could be a month, it could be six months or more . They are just waiting and could not give me an answer at all bc even they don't know.

I called the college of nursing today and they said "final decisions be will made by the first or second week of April."

I just called Wolford college and they said there has been no official decision made yet. Where do you get this information, BigpapaCRNA??
