PA's doing Anesthesia??
I was in the ER last night (my wife fell and fractured her radial head). The PA that saw her was asking me about Nurse Anesthesia and mentioned he was looking to do some more training to be a PA that could do Anesthesia. I have never heard of that. I asked him more about it he mentioned the school was in the East. I asked if it was a AA program (anesthesia assistant) but he said no, it was a PA program.
Has anyone heard of that??? I thought it was weird, he couldn't give me a name of a program, he was very interested in Nurse Anesthesia, he wasn't real happy being a PA and wanted to try something else.
Oh btw my wife is fine, (3 hrs, $60 and cheap looking sling later).
