“You’ve made these drugs and their cellular involvement so much easier to understand”

I just wanted to let you know that coming across your pharm lectures during my CRNA interview prep has been a GODSEND. I was getting a little overwhelmed today by trying to understand the receptors by myself, and it randomly came to mind that I should peruse around CCA and watch a pharm lecture! Best decision ever. I’m now on lecture number seven tonight because you’ve made these drugs and their cellular involvement so much easier to understand. You guys have a crazy amazing GIFT for teaching and have brought so much JOY in the stressful times of prepping for interviews. Thank you!!!!

“I can’t explain how much CCA helped me prepare for my interview.”

I just got accepted into my top choice CRNA program. I can’t explain how much CCA helped me prepare for my interview. I would listen to the pharmacology lectures on my way to and from work. One of the questions I was asked in my interview was “tell me everything you know about phenylephrine”. I was able to explain everything down to the cellular level because of CCA. When I mentioned phospholipase C, inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate, and diacylglycerol, their jaws dropped. This membership has taught me so much and has helped separate me from the other candidates. I just wanted to say this to motivate everyone else that is applying or going for interviews soon. Good luck and you’ve got this!

“I GET the Processes”

You two are literally helping me become such a strong nurse. I get a lot of compliments from the nurses I’ve been working with because I GET the processes. I had a patient with a patent foramen ovale this week and knew she needed bubble precautions because of the peds lecture I listened to literally on the way to my practicum that morning.

“I Cannot Stress How INNOVATIVE It Is!”

Like most of your followers, I’m sure, I’m an RN ~grinding~ for that CRNA life haha. So I JUMPED at the chance to learn from you and Anna with CCA! I loooove it and I cannot stress how helpful and innovative it is. It really lives up to the name Confident Care Academy and it makes me feel better about treating my patients with every lecture.

“I Was Able to Advocate for My Patient!”

I wanted to send a sincere thank you to you for creating CCA. Had my first preceptorship shift yesterday, and I was able to: advocate for my patient to get appropriate pain control, explain to my preceptor, how exactly different vasopressors work (so cool to be able to teach my preceptor something too!), ask for another pressor based on the patient’s condition, perform safety checks with zero prompting from my preceptor, perform an assessment with more confidence, overall feel more confident throughout the shift. I know I still have a lot to learn, but thank you both for making a generally stressful experience a little less so, and helping us baby nurses be better nurses. Ya’ll are doing the Lord’s work. Thank you for all that you do!
