  4. CCRN needed for SRNA?

    missnurse01 replied to ShoogleBear's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I would also let them know, if you already didn't in your resume or goal statement, that you plan to take it. My understanding is that it is looked upon favorably, so any brownie points you can get...

  6. Taking an ADN course, RN to BSN bridge, then CRNA

    missnurse01 replied to geckoguydrew's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    missnurse01 replied to Cathy4836's topic in Online Distance Learning

  9. Is it ever to late to return for a BSN?

    missnurse01 replied to Cathy4836's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Most managers that I have known over the years had recent experience in their unit as they would understand the needs of that unit better. My current manger just got his hca masters degree as he...

  10. Critical Care jobs

    missnurse01 replied to registeredin06's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I believe the market is a little saturated there...I work in the Seattle area and we have new grads from there as well as Cali come up to work with us b/c they can not get jobs in their locale. I...

    missnurse01 replied to marco346's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hey Marco. My understanding is that they like 150/150 for verbal/quant. But if you already have an interview boy nail that thing!! Lol. My scores weren't as great as I hoped but over the minimum....

    missnurse01 replied to crnamiss's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I was really thinking about Duke when I first started looking at programs. It fell off my list somewhere along the way though. VCU is my #1 choice though. I have been trying to figure out what bus...

  14. Is it ever to late to return for a BSN?

    missnurse01 replied to Cathy4836's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I would talk to a local HR department first. Most of the rn-bsn programs that I have seen either do not have any clinicals at all, or they are very focused. Mine was all community health type stuff,...

  15. LPN to RN program without work experience

    missnurse01 replied to nursea92's topic in LPN to RN

    From what I remember what those classes were like it is either a review of the stuff the generic students just did, and/or a role transitions type class as you are moving to RN. I think you will do...

    missnurse01 replied to missnurse01's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  17. LPN to RN program without work experience

    missnurse01 replied to nursea92's topic in LPN to RN

    I think it depends on the program. Where I went to school about 50% of the students went directly into the transition program, which basically funneled them into the 2nd semester of the RN program....

  18. CICU vs CVICU and getting into a program

    missnurse01 replied to nurseysarah's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It depends on the program. I would call and ask your school choices to see what type of experience they prefer. Schools tend to like CVICU d/t to the daily recovery of OHS pt's and all of the...

  22. Is it ever to late to return for a BSN?

    missnurse01 replied to Cathy4836's topic in Online Distance Learning

    always feel free to go back! are you currently a nurse? it sounds like you were and maybe let your license lapse? unless it is what you wish you aren't required to back to do your bsn, most states...

  23. Stna scheduling/working question

    missnurse01 replied to hollyann89's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA
