Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists, or CRNAs, have been administering anesthesia for over 150 years. If you've had a surgical procedure done, chances are you met and were taken care of by a CRNA. CRNAs are the number one anesthesia providers in rural areas, for the men and women of the United States Armed Forces and many hospitals and health care facilities across the nation. Their training is intense and education is rigorous, but at the end of surgery when patients are awake and pain free more than likely you have a CRNA to thank. If you've ever wondered who is at the head of the bed monitoring and keeping you "asleep" for your surgical procedure, then this book is for you. Learn what it takes to become a CRNA, one of healthcare's most hidden and hottest professions.
