best part of being a crna / job opportunities

[Rn0126]

Hey! Just want to hear the best parts about being a crna and what the current job opportunities look like? What kind of jobs are available outside of the OR but in a hospital? And are they used in teaching hospitals? What is it like being an ED crna..if that is a thing ?

There is no such thing as an ED CRNA. CRNA's in the hospital work in OR's pretty much exclusively. You may rotate periodically through interventional radiology and endoscopy suites but that's about it. If you don't want to work in an OR, then CRNA is not for you. The market looks pretty medium to me. Schools are cranking out large classes for many years. But lots of boomers are leaving creating openings. You might have to move to get a job.
