    NorthShore University School of Nurse Anesthesia - CRNA 2025

    BiscuitStripes replied to Ashalet15's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Do you work with PA lines often? Are they really a thing of the past?

    BiscuitStripes replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in Critical Care

    The ICU I currently work in uses them from time to time in severe septic patients or those with impellas. We get maybe one a month, unit is 20 beds. That's very odd that RNs and even some MDs can't...

    Weird Question: Are All Hospital Nurses Wearing Scrub Caps Now?

    BiscuitStripes replied to K. Everly's topic in General Nursing

    Nope, very few people in my ICU wear a scrub cap. I never have, a couple RNs do, never seen any of our hospitalists or Intensivists wear one unless it's required for a procedure like a central
