  • I felt a quick video about what CRNAs actually do was needed on my channel. I receive a lot of questions about what they can do vs what they can't... so hopefully this clears things up! Let me know if you have any question in the comment box down below.
    Hope this video helps! As always, like, comment, subscribe!

    I'm jealous of how fluidly you speak. You'd be a great commentator on a news program/talk show.

    Great topic and the information was direct and factual. It surprises me how much confusion about CRNAs is thrown around. We need more people breaking it down and just educating the public about CRNA practice.

      You're so right! I will sepak for myself and say that I even didn't fully know how extensive our job can be. But I can say I am so excited to join this profession.

    As a soon to be student nurse and prospective CRNA, I’ve been binge watching all your videos and I just want to say THANK YOU! There are a handful of videos that go this in depth about so many aspects of nurse anesthesia. Your videos are so helpful and straightforward.
    I’m still researching about different advanced practice nursing professions and nurse anesthesia is very interesting to me. Do you have any advice on getting experience relevant to the CRNA track as a student nurse/undergrad? This summer, I will become a certified nursing assistant (so there’s that haha). I would also really love to shadow a CRNA, however, I’m not quite sure how I should go about contacting people or who I should contact. Do you have any advice?

    Thanks Aisha for this video, it was really helpful. Im going to be shadowing a CRNA so this video helped me to formulate some questions I want to ask and things to look for. Can you do a video about the basics on Business reimbursement aspects of CRNAs?

    • @AishaCRNA
      @AishaCRNA  6 років тому

      Hey thanks for watching! I will definitely do a video on this topic once I finish my business related courses and have a better grasp on it. It can be tricky!

  • @catherinelindelof6630

    Question for you: I know that CRNAs can insert central lines, etc., but do they actually do that? I'm thinking of the (one) hospital I've worked in, and it was always MDs that would do that. Is that something that, say, a patient would need, so a CRNA could get called to insert that at the bedside? I haven't seen CRNAs in a hospital setting (outside of an OR) before, so I guess I don't understand their role other than in L&D/epidurals.

    • @AishaCRNA
      @AishaCRNA  6 років тому +4

      Yes of course. Just like in my video I pointed out that different facilities utilize different practice models. And since you stated you worked in only one hospital, that could be hospital where CRNAs don't operate in that role. I highly doubt a CRNA would be called bedside to do that because their line placement is for use in the operating room. Did you work in an operating room, because if not, I highly doubt you would ever see a CRNA placing lines bedside. Maybe in pre op when they want a pre-induction arterial/central line

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I have been an RN for 2 years now and will be transferring to ICU hopefully by August (interviewing this week). I plan on applying to CRNA school next year. From what I have read most schools require at least 1 year of ICU experience, but to be competitive its better to have 2 year. I work at a small hospital (89 beds, level 4 trauma) do you think I will have a shot at getting in the first time? How much experience did you have? and what was the trauma level at your hospital?

    Hi, I’m about to graduate from nursing school soon and am planning to go into med surg and then hopefully Segway into cicu. I’m interested in research and my program emphasizes PhD route for research. I’m curious as to what your DNP entails and how it shapes nurse anesthesia practice. Im interested in anesthesia and research.

    Great channel! I’m a CRNA for 7 years, and ALL anesthesia schools must teach you (BY LAW) ALL the skills required to be a CRNA before you sit for boards. It’s great to have school spirit but EVERY anesthesia program has national standards they MUST adhere to- GEAUX TIGERS 🐯!!(LSU ALUMNi 👩🏼‍🎓) 😷👍🏽

      sleeping purpletiger was the whole process becoming a CRNA difficult? was it times you wanted to just give up?

    • @TheGreatAwakening2024
      @TheGreatAwakening2024 6 років тому

      Hardest yet most satisfying endeavour I’ve ever accomplished is to become a Nurse Anesthesiologist.
      You will become a CRNA when it becomes your prioritized goal AND your motivation is beyond the material and is to be of genuine service to others.
      It is a great honor and privilege to administer general anesthesia to your diverse human family; mandating a strong moral compass and compassion.
      An awesome and humbling responsibility to care for others (usually terrified!) in such an intense, rapid pace, chaotic environment. You will never be the same!

    • @AishaCRNA
      @AishaCRNA  6 років тому

      I hear ya! I just know some have had different experiences and I only like to speak of my school. ALSO- have you heard of an anesthesiologist being upset about the term MDA? Curious what your thoughts are about this

      Of course it's not a real term... it's an acronym!!!
