    ECU_CRNA2B posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    hey all, I am in my first semester and taking a 'physics in anesthesia' course. The required text is from a british author--hence all the units of measurement are off a bit from what I am used to...

  3. I *do* recognize the need for nursing theory

    ECU_CRNA2B replied to carachel2's topic in Post Graduate Students

  4. Alternative Loans - here's what I've found

    ECU_CRNA2B replied to ArkyCCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That is why alternative loans that do not require school certification are the ones you (and others in our boat) need. Your school will not 'certify' or approve you to recieve more money than it...

  5. I *do* recognize the need for nursing theory

    ECU_CRNA2B replied to carachel2's topic in Post Graduate Students

  6. I *do* recognize the need for nursing theory

    ECU_CRNA2B replied to carachel2's topic in Post Graduate Students

    michewa, you gotta read through this thread again if you are still confused. ArkyCCRN and Big Dave have done a fantastic job of supplying info. I printed it out and started making my own little...

  9. Dayshift vs. Nighshift

    ECU_CRNA2B replied to pie123's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I dunno if others will agree or not... I think there are some people who just weren't meant to work nights. I have worked nights for 7 years now, every time i had to go to days for orientation or...

  10. Needs some advices about experience

    ECU_CRNA2B replied to jin00005's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    jin, I know there were more than a few in my interview sessions (I interviewed at three schools) who were declined for the very same reason. It might not be bad idea to indeed change to a place...
