Shadowing a CRNA


I was just given a number for a CRNA who works at a local hospital by someone who knows her. I'm anxious to call out of the blue in the case that she might find it annoying to have some stranger call and ask to follow her around at work. The person who gave me the number said to let the CRNA know she gave me the number, so maybe I'm worrying for nothing.

I'm wondering if any of the CRNA's here would be annoyed or put off by a call from someone to shadow you, or if it's something you don't mind doing? This is one of those cases were I would much rather have use email, lol! TIA!

Call the anesthesia department and ask the secretary to set up a shadow for you.

Most CRNAs are very happy to show their profession to those who are interested. So go ahead and make the call. Just don't do it at 10pm

Does this really work? Can you shadow without having your RN license?
