40 something

Specialties CRNA

Published

Hello everybody,

I am new to this board and to the medical field. I am currently being trained in a hospital to be a nursing tech. This is my first step into the nursing field. My ultimate goal is to become a CRNA. I already have a bachelors degree in a non nursing or scientific field.

I am basically starting over again. Anybody else out there in their 40's who are working on becoming a CRNA? Or someone who is already established as a CRNA, who did not start until there 40's. I would enjoy hearing the saga.

Oh, yes and somebody on the board said that they are from Tennessee on the board. I live in Nashville - a great city.

Ciao,

Lisa

Just wanted to wish you luck on your road...it's a long one but very achievable. Although I am not yet even a SRNA, I am at a point in my life which I thought would never come.

Specializes in Nurse Anesthetist.

Am 39, just finished my 1st trimester. Good luck, its worth it.

~~~~~~~~ Soon to be 37!..............One semester down, 7 left! I, too, believe it is worth it! ~~~~~~~

They have a saying in colleges...........the older you get, the better you do, the more you retain, and the longer you can endure. :D :D :D :D :D

I will leave it there....lol
