Hi, I am currently in a bsn program. Ultimate goal is to become a crna. I was just wanting to know, if I were to get a job in a critical care setting as a cna or pct, can that actually count toward my critical care experience for a crna program?

No, CRNA schools look for experience as a registered nurse in a critical care setting. Good luck!!!

It will help you get an RN position once you graduate. It will not count as critical care experience.

I was a student nurse in an ICU which opened the door to getting in the ICU immediately after graduating....
