Hello folks, just thought I'd say hello. So....Hello! drunken.gif

Ok, I dabble quite a bit with computers and have been doing so for roughly 20 years. My current rig is sig'd for your viewing pleasure. I came to this site after being a loyal member to another site for a long time (10+ years). Though I'm still active there, the views expressed, and even their answers are becoming a little stale and to be frank, predictable. Undoubtedly, I feel the need for a fresh perspective as technology keeps moving forward. thumb.gif

I am retired Army. gunner2.gif I was a Army ICU (burn) nurse and now live in a Chicago suburb. thumb.gif I have kids with my oldest a combat veteran herself and my son is a West Point Candidate. The third child (another son) is a computer geek like his old man smile.gif

Oh yeah, I'm married over 23 years to my best friend. That's enough personal stuff.

Well okay folks, I hope to be here for the foreseeable future. Thanks for the awesome site!thumb.gif

Welcome Jamin. I'm a Cardiac ICU RN. Going for my CRNA next. I live close to Shriners Hospital(burns pediatric). I don't think I could ever work there. Seeing those burnt kids was horrible.

Hi there, I did a few weeks auditing their care (Shriner's in Houston TX) back in the late 90s. I used to work at Brooke Army Medical Center's Institute of Surgical Research in their ICU (good Ol' San Antonio@ Fort Sam Houston, TX). Once you master burn care with the complex modalities associated with wounds, physio-factors associated w/critical burn care and you'll be able to handle any kind of nursing out there today---at least that's the way I see it.


Unless of course you're in the department of corrections, that's a different animal all together smile.gif

I wish you well in your nursing (CRNA) endeavors. smile.gif My wife begins her DNP studies at Rush University in the Spring. No more Master's program for advance nursing practice. Go figure.

...and thanks for the welcome!

Pete

Guess so, I don't see the need to upgrade. It's a beautiful thing we x58 members have here. Several year old hardware still doing well and giving new tech a run for their money. Upgrade graphics and SSD is all I've done since building the monster and I'm a happy camper smile.gifthumb.gif
