CRNA orders

by CougRN

Any practicing CRNA's have input on this issue?

http://allnurses.com/forums/showthre...threadid=54292

When a CRNA gives orders to an RN do they have to be cosigned by an MDA or ok'd by an MDA? I wouldn't think so because some facilities don't have MDA's but I thought this issue would be best answered by practicing CRNA's.

My understanding, is that CRNAs have prescriptive authority within the hospital.

It depends on the hospital and state that you work in.
