    If you don't mind me asking, what branch of the military came to speak with you all?
  2. Selecting a CRNA school

    Can any SRNA/CRNA attest to the quality of the clinical education provided by your program or others? I haven't seen this topic discussed recently or conversations are more in general about what to look for in a school vs. naming specific schools tha...
  3. Air Force Nurse Pay

    Wtbcrna, Sir, what civilian programs would you recommend?
  4. Drexel CRNA Class of 2014

    SRNA4U, 1. Do you have any information regarding CRNA bonuses in the AF Reserve? 2. From my research, it seems that new grad CRNA salaries start anywhere from $120-140k. I've heard that you can expect an increase of about 5% per year. Does this seem ...
  5. A member can apply for palace chase 6mos before DEROS with separation date equal to DEROS (if DOS and DEROS are different); apply 1 yr out if DEROS and DOS are the same (member would separate 6mos before this date). I haven't applied yet, I'm still ...
  6. Air Force Nurse Pay

    Wtbcrna, Do you have any information on case numbers for USUHS and USGPAN ( ie number of ASA 3/4 pts, a-lines, central lines, etc)? Also, I've talked to a few ologists who claim crnas are great for healthy pts and "routine" cases, but they say their ...
  7. Wtbcrna, I've attempted to contact Lt Col Todd about the direct accession program, but I have not heard a response yet so I will pose my questions to you. My background is as follows: I have a cumulative GPA of 3.3, science GPA of 3.7, and BSN GPA of...

  11. Air Force

    wtbcrna, Another question for you: If I have a four year commitment, get accepted into the Critical Care Fellowship after my first two years, will I owe the AF only two years after the fellowship (totaling five years) or an additional year after the ...
  12. Air Force

    Besides considering the average number of clinical hours, cases, and clinical rotation units, in your opinion what other factors should a potential NA student consider in a NA school? Is there anything in particular to focus on to ensure the school w...
  13. BSN Student: Airforce or other route?!

    Alright. Thanks.
  14. BSN Student: Airforce or other route?!

    Yes, my prior time is AD. The bases I included on my list were Elmendorf, Travis, WPAFB, Nellis, and Lackland, respectively. Do you know of the past/present opportunities for part-time ICU employment in these areas (on/off base)? And, if I understand...
  15. BSN Student: Airforce or other route?!

    For wtbcrna (anyone else knowledgeable about AF CRNAs), I've been following your posts for sometime now and I have another question for you if you don't mind. As mentioned before, I will commission next year as a 2LT in the AF and join the nurse corp...
  16. Wtbcrna, Do you have any more advice for new AF nurses pursuing the CRNA career field?
  17. For WTBCRNA or anyone else with insight: I am also interested in the CRNA career field and have been researching possible pathways of obtaining that goal with the Air Force. I am currently active duty and will be graduating nursing school soon throug...
  18. Air Force AFIT and Bonus

    Thank you for your response. I understand I must get experience as a floor nurse, but I would really like to move into an advance practice position (np, crna) as soon as possible and I would just like to achieve that goal in a timely manner and make ...
  19. Air Force AFIT and Bonus

    Hello all. I'll be graduating nursing school next May through NECP and had a few questions. I'll incur a four year commitment after school. 1. If I completed an NP program without AFIT, what would be the process to move into that area opposed to sta...
