    Sounds like a good problem to have until you're actually paying ~ 2500/month a back for your

    Working in a rural area sounds good in theory until you're actually living in a rural area. Anyways, good luck

    CCRNdude replied to Liberation's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    39 months @ 138k not including cost of living. What's the appeal with this school? Why would anybody want to go here if they weren't geographically tied down to a

  5. new grad RN with 2 job offers, what would you do??

    CCRNdude replied to zumbaRN4's topic in First Year After Licensure

    If you want to work in ICU, I would go with hospital #2. I work with a couple of former Hoag employees (one of them being an ex-nurse manager), and neither had great things to say, other than that...

    CCRNdude replied to m1lkofamnesia's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Barry posted outcomes for the graduating class of 2016. There was a 24 percent attrition rate for the class. I'm coming from out of state, so I don't really know anybody who has graduated from the...

    CCRNdude replied to m1lkofamnesia's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The interview was quick and easy. It almost seems like not enough time to sell yourself, but overall I got good vibes from the faculty. They were all nice, and they do their best to make you...

    CCRNdude replied to m1lkofamnesia's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I asked how many spots they have left in the program and was told 25-30. Maybe some spots opened up because other people accepted offers from other schools? I recently shadowed again and spoke with...

  11. Should ICU get more pay than floor nursing?!?

    CCRNdude replied to francoml's topic in MICU, SICU

    Also, a couple of salary sites state that ICU/critical care salaries are 5-7% higher than the average RN salary. Why is this? Are individuals who have worked both the floors and ICU the only ones that...

  12. Should ICU get more pay than floor nursing?!?

    CCRNdude replied to francoml's topic in MICU, SICU

    I just enjoy debate for the sake of debating. I honestly don't care either way. I don't mean to offend anyone. I'll be the first to say that med/surg is hard work. However, we're all entitled to an...

  15. Should ICU get more pay than floor nursing?!?

    CCRNdude replied to francoml's topic in MICU, SICU

    I've worked both the floor and the ICU. Considering that hospitals charge an arm and a leg for ICU care, and the ICU nurses are with the patient 24/7, I do think that ICU nurses should be paid a least...

  17. CMC- Cardiac Medical Certifcation subspecialty

    CCRNdude replied to Jujubear2606's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    CCRN and CMC are highly regarded by CRNA ADCOMS. I do know that some local flight programs and ICUs give preference to those with the certification. With that being said, I do think that obtaining the...

    CCRNdude replied to m1lkofamnesia's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'll be interviewing as well. Judging from past posts it seems to be a 15 minute personal interview. The email says they're interviewing 30 people within 4 hours, so it'll be interesting to see how...
