Question 1: How does an RN become a CRNA?

To become a CRNA, one must have the following requirements:

• A US RN license (take the NCLEX RN Review);
  
• At least 1 year experience in Acute Care Nursing;
• A Master’s Degree in Nurse Anesthesia (24 to 36 months including clinical training );and
• Must pass the US certification exam following graduation.

It takes a total of seven (7) years to become a CRNA including your Bachelors Degree in Nursing. What is time if we have  the necessary resources?

When we work as RNs in America, all doors are open to afford this kind of continuing education. Three (3) years in continuing education isn’t really that bad.

In the US, you can work ang go to Nursing Graduate School. In the Philippines, you have a lot of sacrifices to make.

So, are you up for this kind of challenge?Now is the time to  really be excited about your future. For other additional information, you may visit Salary.com and the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists.

Nursing is Recession Free

Jobs in the US Healthcare Industry especially in nursing are recession free. Here are the top three (3)  reasons why Filipino nurses will be deployed sooner than later:

1. UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE – According to President-elect Barrack Obama’s nurse campaign fact sheets, “Barack Obama is committed to signing universal health legislation by the end of his first term in office that ensures all Americans have high-quality, affordable health care coverage…” More healthcare means more nurses. More nurses means more Filipinos coming into the United States;
   
2. AMERICAN NURSES are retiring– In the same campaign factsheet it was stated that,”too many young adults are choosing not to enter the nursing profession, and a significant number of current nurses are switching careers or retiring early…  ” Well a lot of young Filipino nurses are more than willing to these jobs. America realizes that;
3. CALIFORNIA, NEW YORK, ILLINOIS and other States NURSING SHORTAGE – Despite the recession, Top US States still experience a nursing shortage. This situation will not diminish for some time;

All the above statements are proof that the nursing profession is not affected by the current  economic downturn within the United States.
