  1. I got in & so will you!

    ruler of kolob replied to bepositive123's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Bitterness? Not really . The fact the OP was granted an interview with a 3.1 GPA and marginal GRE scores supports my position. As soon as 10 years ago no reputable school would grant an interview....

  2. I got in & so will you!

    ruler of kolob replied to bepositive123's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Those of you with GPAs around 2.5 should not worry , there will be openings for anyone who applies . Some schools don't even interview. It will be as easy to get into as a CNS or generic MSN program...

  3. I got in & so will you!

    ruler of kolob replied to bepositive123's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    With the proliferation of CRNA programs, nationwide, anyone who wants to get in will. It is not nearly as selective as it was 5 or10 years ago. Apply enough and you will get it. Don't sweat GPA GRE...

  4. Masters in the Science of Nursing vs Masters in Biological Science

    ruler of kolob replied to marco346's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Reconsidering my post. There is an advantage of an MS over MSN. In an M program you are spared nausea inducing "Nursing Theory "

  5. Masters in the Science of Nursing vs Masters in Biological Science

    ruler of kolob replied to marco346's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Nope.

  6. CMS reimbursement rules for AAs

    ruler of kolob replied to wtbcrna's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I think a better solution would be to restrict the forum to only CRNAs . No AAs,students or people thinking about this profession. They have their own sub

  7. CMS reimbursement rules for AAs

    ruler of kolob replied to wtbcrna's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Ahhh. Now this is the Allnurses I remember. Maybe we should go back to prior screening of posts to maintain a genteel

  8. CRNA's working with AA's

    ruler of kolob replied to OscarRN's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I'm pretty sure if AAs were as bad as many CRNA's wish they were...they would not find jobs. Anecdotally , AA's seem to have more job choices than more than a few new grad

  9. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I don't mean to contribute to the thread jacking , but, diploma programs were graduating students into the 90s. I know of at least two in this state that were giving diplomas as late as

  10. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    ruler of kolob posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    This is for CRNAs only....Are any of you NOT members of the AANA? if not, why not? Please do not go on and on about how it is my prefessional organization protecting my scope of practice etc etc etc....

    Thank you. I did not realize that. But let me restate that I am looking for CRNAs who are not AANA

  12. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I do not work with AAs , however, they are in several local hospitals. The interesting thing about the hiring of AAs was, despite the " Sturm Und Drang" no CRNA left any of those practices in protest....

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I am not saying AAs in the military are a good thing. But it could be done if the need arises. CRNAs and MDAs could fill deployment positions in ATHs etc. In the case of the USAF. And CASH (?) ,...

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    There are many places to get updates on clinical issues. Not so much professional issues. Unless you borrow someone's copy of the newsletter. As for doing it to save money, nope. The story you...

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Vast was not the adjective to use. And I did say I heard a rumor about AAs in the military. It has been a long time since I was a 46M3. We did not have AAs. I do not keep up with military CRNA...

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Once more ... I cannot make this more clear.. I do not want to be pilloried by AANA members about how non-membership is tantamount to pedophelia or high treason...I am looking for those who are NOT...

  20. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    It is not an economic issue. The cost to renew certification costs as much as it would to be an AANA member... so no money is

  21. AANA (NON) membership anyone?

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    You are obviously a satisfied customer... I am happy for you. I am looking for reasons why a CRNA would choose not to be a member...... Even if you are a member only to take advantage of

    ruler of kolob replied to ruler of kolob's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I am only stirring the pot because the vast majority of members are not dissatisfied with the services rendered by the AANA, COA or the NBCRNA. This is the only CRNA forum where nonmembers can post....

  25. NP to CRNA?!

    ruler of kolob replied to Missy89's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Withe the proliferation of schools nationwide, you could probably get into a school regardless of prior experience. To fill seats schools are pretty liberal with the definition of " Acute Care" . I...
