  1. BSN at WGU to CRNA.

    IndiCRNA replied to KbmRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I really struggled with physics and wished I had taken an entry level class before attempting aneshthesia school. I wouldn't have taken it for credit but just to get some background. As for grad...

  2. BSN at WGU to CRNA.

    IndiCRNA replied to KbmRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Fiar enough but take me advice. Keep your desire to go to CRNA school to yourself unless you already have a good job in a high aquiety ICU. ICU nurse managers often hate to lose their nurses to...

    IndiCRNA replied to KbmRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Nope it's a long established practice. One partner was getting ready to retire and they were looking for a new CRNA to join to take his place. I worked casual in the ICU and ER in this hospital and...

  6. BSN at WGU to CRNA.

    IndiCRNA replied to KbmRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Just wanted to add. The CRNAs in our group make more money than more than half of the physicians in the medical group. We make more than nearly all the family practice, internal med, and peds docs....

    IndiCRNA replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Why do you insist of attributing arguments to PMFB that he didn't make? Stop putting words into others mouth and stick to your point. To me it is very revealing that you can only name call and argue...

  9. A Call to Action from the Nation's Nurses in the Wake of Newtown

    IndiCRNA replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I never looking into it but I always assumed the ANA was an anti-nurse organization made up of people who disliked nurses. I based this assumption based on their press releases and the things they...

  10. A Call to Action from the Nation's Nurses in the Wake of Newtown

    IndiCRNA replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    No of course you don't see how nurses wouldn't agree with you. The goal is present those of us who disagree as unreasonable. Well I am not unreasonable and I very much disagree. I know that banning...

  11. A Call to Action from the Nation's Nurses in the Wake of Newtown

    IndiCRNA replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    It was nothing but a feel good "ban". Nothing was actually banned. At no time during the time the law was in force were the "banned" weapons or magazines not readily available at local sporting goods...

    IndiCRNA replied to KbmRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I got my BSN through WGU and was accepted to 3 of the 4 programs I applied to the first time. I graduated from CRNA school this August (2012). My exerience was far more important than academics. Where...

  16. what's the quickest (least schooling) way to become a nurse anesthesiologist?

    IndiCRNA replied to mdflann's topic in Advanced Practice

    Actualy a CRNA with an MSN is fairly unusual. Only the few CRNA programs based out of big university schools of nursing grant the MSN to their CRNA grads. The majority of CRNA programs are not based...

  17. Ever had a Dr. mad at you?

    IndiCRNA replied to KBLOWE831's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's not the nurses fault the hospital has a system problem. Computer order entry AND hand written orders in the paper chart? Sounds like a huge problem to me. Even if it is the nurses fault and she...

  23. what's the quickest (least schooling) way to become a nurse anesthesiologist?

    IndiCRNA replied to mdflann's topic in Advanced Practice

    First it's nurse anesthetist, not anesthesiologist. The fastest way to become a CRNA I know of would be to complete a 2 year associates degree then go directly to work in an ICU while also enrolling...
