   Dielsh replied to Dielsh's topic in Operating Room

   Good question about the aide. Another room had an airway emergency and needed a guide scope. My patient had a secure airway and was completely stable.

   I have a question for OR nurses. I am a CRNA and I had a situation where I was inducing the patient with the help of an anesthesia aide. The circulator left the OR during induction without telling or asking me. After induction, I looked up and all...

   I just got an email from the U.S. Army Recruiting Command that the OAPP does still exist, at least for CRNAs and most likely other critical care areas.

   Dielsh replied to RN2ndLTTB's topic in Government

   I wish you luck. Keep us informed on your progress. If the OAPP does still exist that would be great.

    Dielsh replied to StormRN's topic in Government

    I was recently by a recruiter that OAPP no longer existed. Maybe they recently reinstated the program and are not advertising it. Thanks for the info.
