To all the CRNA's --
Where do you work - hopsital versus out patient settings? And how many hours a week do you work (including call)? Any regrets?
I ask for my own information - I'm 45 yo RN with many years ICU experience trying to decide if CRNA would be a good thing to pursue.
I love technical work (love working with vents, monitors, and gtts) I do enjoy patient interaction, I'd like more autonomy and of course better pay as I get closer to retirement.
What I don't want is to work 60 hours a week and not have time at home. Been there done that with a management job.
Thanks for the info!
