   What do you like about Neuro, cardio and nurse anesthesia? I mean why are you considering these different specialties?

   Oh nice, I work with a fair number of psych patients where I work but it's mainly considered a skilled nursing facility. With psych patients you need to be very patient and understanding. It's not for everyone, I imagine most would not like to do it....

   I'm bummed as well, actually I just read that email she sent us. I thought she was really funny, patient and helpful. I was honestly looking forward to talking to her since she has a Master's in Experimental Psychology. And I love Psychology too. I d...

   Yup you purchase them from Affordable Uniforms and they go on the left shoulder or left sleeve on each top including lab coat. I don't know how to sew either, well more correctly I forgot how, so my mom just did it for me. And awesome about being ab...

   No, you need to purchase the CSU patches separately and either sew the patches in yourself or pay a fee for Affordable Uniforms to sew it on. Regarding the shoes it's "No canvas tennis shoes, open heel or clogs may be worn. All white leather tennis s...

   Yes I went to Affordable Uniforms and bought my uniforms. They actually already have the uniforms for CSU so you don't need to wait for them to order it. Well that was what happened in my case. I bought one lab coat, and two pairs of the white scrub ...

   I just finished my last requirement for the program which was to become CPR certified. It was free from where I work. CSU charges 50 bucks. I still need to wait to get my CPR card though since I just finished the class. How are you doing with your he...

   During my interview the professor ----- said the same thing. A student asked about jobs right after graduating. The Affordable Care Act, I agree seems to have a lot of issues right now. Are you going to work during the program? And if so, how many ho...

   Don't think the chances of us working in a Cleveland Hospital is miniscule. I'm sure hospitals, if they have a spot open, would love to have a nurse with two Bachelor's of Science degrees and who could handle the rigor of an accelerated BSN program. ...

    That's why I chose to go to Cleveland State for my first BS and second BSN, It's cheap, I don't have to pay for room and board. Since I didn't have to pay for room and board, I pretty much got a full ride for my first Bachelor's of Science. But since...

    Yup I did! We should be study buddies. LOL. I just checked Case Western's entry level Master's program the amount of time to get all the RN requirements done is 4 semesters just like CSU. Also, it's best to do the Accelerated BSN program if you're no...

    My cumulative gpa is a 3.27 but my prereq gpa was really high like a 3.9. What can I say? Science is tough. Most people flunk out of the Science classes. They're pretty much like weedout classes. Even if we were to do a entry Master's degree. We woul...

    Actually I heard you might not need a BSN to go the NP or CRNA route, you can do an entry master's program but it's expensive and there are not that many programs available. I can see how requiring all or most healthcare careers to have a doctorate c...

    neurosciencelover8 replied to OUxPhys's topic in Ohio

    You need a BSN AND at least 1 or 2 years of fulltime work as a Registered Nurse in an ICU or other critical care unit in a hospital to become a CRNA. Also, there is a movement to change the requirement to become a Nurse Practitioner or CRNA (which is...

    I heard from the PA I was shadowing and a RN where I work at that Nurse Practitioners have wider prescriptive authority. The PA said there was a movement to remove the prescriptive authority for controlled substances (narcotics) for PA's in Ohio. And...
