  1. Adult ICU RN interested in NICU

    I also agree with the above two posters about this. Adult ICU experiences high acuity on a far more frequent basis than Level III and Level IV NICU's do. I worked NICU for 2 years and did see very...
  2. Wolford CRNA Fall 2017

    Did they mention anything about passing their reaccreditation
  3. Applying to CRNA school 2017/2018

    That's disappointing, sounds like NP schools. Which schools are you referring to?
  4. CRNA school, Fall 2018

    What about it worries you? If you have a master's in anesthesia of course you'll be able to continue to practice. Me personally, I'm going to try to get into an MSN program before the DNAP dominates...
  5. Brave or just stupid?

    Is it really? That's awesome news. I don't see how that can be enforced though. Do you have any sources or additional information I could read about
  6. Las Vegas ( Nevada ) RN Pay ( Min & Max )

    I'm going to send you a private message, check your
  7. As a new grad RN a year and a half ago, a group of us attended a meeting with our CNO. One grad asked if our hospital uses CRNA's. She replied, "Not at this time, however, we will not be renewing the...
  8. ICU Drips

    My experience with Lasix is 2.5mg increments based off hourly urine
  9. DNP to BSN

    If you are in a CRNA program, there is no reason to go back and get a bachelors degree in nursing. Your DNP will suit you quit well in obtaining a
  10. Being Gay and a Male Nursing Student

    In my experience most gay men in nursing are drawn to ER for some
  11. Veteran Affairs travel

    Is the 5 years of RN experience a preference, or
  12. Veteran Affairs travel

    Wow Wolf, that's a cool chart to skim. Defintely interesting. Thing is, a 52 week contract would be killer if you didn't like the work setting or coworkers.
  13. ED workload

    I agree with you that ER wears you out. I come with an ICU background (and still work ICU), but got a second position in ER, and man it's a steeper learning curve than I anticipated. I find myself...
  14. ED Pay vs Med/Surg Pay

    My mistake, I looked and you are correct. I feel lucky to work critical care for both positions. Thanks
  15. ED Pay vs Med/Surg Pay

    Really? I am regular staff in NV (Las Vegas) working for two different hospital systems and haven't heard of or noticed this to be the case. Maybe I'm
  16. Opportunity to transition into critical care

    Open to relocation? I can PM you a hospital that will hire you into a large
  17. Should I go for my DNP?

    I'd like to correct a few items here. There is NO requirement to get your DNP for Nurse Practitioners. None, nada, zilch. The only nursing profession that has put a requirement in place are CRNA's,...
  18. Veteran Affairs travel

    Thank you for sharing
  19. PA practice authority

    As do PA's. I often have to correct and edit orders made by the PA in the ER I work in. Or how about the PA who had no idea what to do in my recent ACLS renewal class? They didn't know what atropine...
  20. ADN in 2016 completely useless?

    Just so you know, there are some hospitals that will provide relocation assistance (even without acute care experience). I know a hospital that I could almost guarantee you'd get hired at. It's in...
  21. Why do we need that? Master prepared NP's are
  22. Travel agency billing for OT

    Wolf, for which specialty is
  23. Hospital Parking as a Travel Nurse

    Did not know this and I had been wondering. Thank you! Do agencies reimburse for new scrubs? Since so many hospitals have different color
  24. PRN and Per Diem are basically the same thing. And in my opinion, you could transfer as soon as you could to ICU, it will just be more challenging to do that with less than 1 year
  25. CRNA school: All you need to know

    What is the minimum passing percentage score for each class you are taking? I hear CRNA programs you need to get somewhere around an 85% minimum in each
