Unsuccessful CRNA Student
I was unsuccessful at passing a CRNA class during my first year. Are there any other students or CRNAs who were or are in my situation (if so feel free to comment or PM me)? Does anyone know of a school that will accept a student who was previously unsuccessful at another program? Thanks in advance guys!

Electronic Stethoscope.. worth the $?
My mom is hard of hearing and tried to use the electronic stethoscope (I'm sorry, I cannot remember the brand). She found that the Littmann Cardiology III was just as helpful as the electronic stethoscope. But I believe the choice in stethoscope is very personally. See if a local uniform shop has one in stock to try out. If they don't ask them to order it for customers, you never know unless you ask!

Pharmacists giving injections!?!
While I am protective of nurses and their roles, I think the greatest good for the community is to allow Pharmacists to give vaccines to the public. As someone else said, Pharmacists are very valuable healthcare team members.

Can my personal health be revealed without my consent?
I'm so sorry this happened to you. I would try to keep personal health problems private, even among my coworkers. I agree with the above commenter, that this is probably not a violation of HIPPA violation.

Precepting Tips
Ask questions, lots of questions. Be very humble as a student, in other words, don't act like a "know it all." If you are planning on applying for a job at the facility, remember this is your new grad interview. Best of luck to you!!!!

You must report drug diversion. This nurse is a danger to patients and oneself.
