  2. Weatherford College fall 2014 adn applicants

    WhiffOfGas replied to NayNay69's topic in Texas Nursing

    I only have 28 points, I'm INSANELY nervous!! 4.0 student, but only a few classes; I can hardly contain my nervousness! Each day I check the mailbox to no avail, I come back inside -trying not to...

  3. Interviewing for ICU...

    WhiffOfGas replied to DEE S.'s topic in MICU, SICU

    That does sound quite tough; what were your responses to those questions? I'd be stumped for

  4. Florida Proposal PCB 14-01 Thoughts?

    WhiffOfGas posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I haven't seen a thread on this site about this issue yet and I thought I would ask if anyone has any thoughts? As far as I can understand, this would be a big step forward for CRNAs (everywhere) if...

  5. Florida Proposal PCB 14-01 Thoughts?

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Very good information! Thank you for your response, I appreciate and value your feedback. I too noticed some of his inaccuracies (like his remark that only three states allow CRNAs to practice...

  6. Poll: Your Badges

    WhiffOfGas posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I'm starting this thread because the other ones are so very old and I am too curious to go without asking. On your badges at work, I've always heard it was your education and then your credential(s)....

  7. Poll: Your Badges

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    All of our CRNAs simply have "CRNA" on their badges. I guess maybe specifying badges was the wrong way to go; I probably should've asked a more general question like when you would sign something...

  8. Weatherford College fall 2014 adn applicants

    WhiffOfGas replied to NayNay69's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thanks to everyone's comments and feedback to my previous comment, I really appreciate it. For now, I'm going to try to stop thinking "what if I don't get in" and focus on the positive... the moment...

  9. Weatherford College fall 2014 adn applicants

    WhiffOfGas replied to NayNay69's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't know the details of how they obtained their points (they're not friends of mine) aside from knowing their GPA is around 2.5 --it was seriously discouraging to hear/overhear. One of them...

  11. What Most Prepared You

    WhiffOfGas posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    As someone just beginning their journey, I thought I would ask the community: what best prepared you for success as an SRNA? Were there particular subjects or courses you paid special attention to?...

  12. What Most Prepared You

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    This is great advice!!! Thank you so much for sharing! I greatly appreciate it and am duly impressed by your effort, hard-work and the tenacity you must have to be able to look at it like both a job...

  13. Clinical Site Can Determine It All

    WhiffOfGas posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm not quite sure on the details of how the entire process of interviewing and clinical site selection takes place but I do have a question regardless: if you apply to every school in your area (all...

  14. What Most Prepared You

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Beautiful advice!! I really, REALLY appreciate it! It sounds like a really wild and exciting ride! I do have to ask how you went/go about juggling all of that information in the very beginning: were...

  15. What Most Prepared You

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I don't think the poster was saying CRNA school was not difficult. I think the point of the post was to say something similar to GoBlueRN in that time management is going to be one of the most...

    WhiffOfGas posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    In the spirit of the New Year, I thought it would be fitting to ask the CRNAs out there for an offering of any nuggets of wisdom they might have for the wannabes, new CRNAs or anyone interested. Maybe...

  17. Nuggets of Wisdom

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    In this case, I would find it interesting to challenge the CRNA by presenting your interpretation of events and contentions of why you feel the way you do and see what they say. Maybe I've been...

    WhiffOfGas replied to WhiffOfGas's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Now, Im no a CRNA and have nowhere near their wisdom or expertise (as I am just an anesthesia tech) but I guess Ill kick us off! This year, I learned: never be afraid to cancel a case -even when the...
