  1. What to brush up on before school starts?

    miloisstinky replied to MollyS's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Oh no....please RELAX before school. You will be told this over and over and over again, and it is TRUE. They will teach you all you need to know. Personally, I don't think you NEED a laptop, plenty...

  3. Bedside surgery with no sedation

    miloisstinky replied to Kiwi's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  7. Want to be a CRNA... nursing school or 4 year college?

    miloisstinky replied to future4thRNinthefam's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    The 2 year ADN, getting ICU experience (even part time), while obtaining an accelerated BSN sounds like a good plan. But then again, knocking out the BSN all in one shot is a great plan too. Remember,...

  8. Read any anesthesia textbooks before acceptance?

    miloisstinky replied to Jetman's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    They don't expect you to KNOW anesthesia, that is why you want to go to school for it! Right? If anything, shadow a CRNA, just to understand the scope of practice of the profession, and review CCRN...

    miloisstinky posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    What do you guys consider the best shoes, our instructor says "absolutely no sitting AT ALL"....which is understandable, but painful after the 4th-5th-6th hour. Any suggestions on clogs or a certain...

  13. Shoe Suggestions and Earpiece Thoughts.....

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

    I did not expect my questions to grow into such a large diverse discussion, and yes, well said, we ALL wear shoes. But, to clarify, my "older" director SWEARS by the earpiece. She says she can hear an...
