Hey all...anyone know what the heck this stands for? It's in an ad for a "career fair" that's being held.
There is a listing of job opportunities and under "Nursing" it reads
RN's & LPN's
CNA's & CRNA's
STNA's
Now if I'm not mistaken, CRNA is Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist??? (I don't understand why they would have them listed beside CNA's though)or maybe certified respiratory nursing assistant??? and if that's the case how would I get training for that?
But what the heck is STNA??? I was under the impression that here in PA, there is no "step up" between CNA and LPN and now I'm wondering...
Oh yeah...In case you didn't read my original post, I'm obviously not a nurse, but a CNA...
