As I have read various posts on the boards and the FAQ about becoming a CRNA a question has been brewing in my head.
What are good, solid, defensible reasons to become a CRNA? Especially in regards to answering the question that may come up in an interview for a school.
First, I realize "making buckets of money" is not a good reason (just a bonus in my head). However, what is?
I have a couple years until I can apply (I graduate this December with my BSN) but I would like to really work out my reasons for becoming a CRNA before the application is looming. It is not that I don't have reasons, I'm just not sure if they are good enough reasons.
I'm not looking for someone to give me a reason to become a CRNA but what you think are good reasons or what were/are your reasons.

Just write out what it is about being a CRNA that you like or would like doing that would make you happy (not just something good to please the interview panel) and that should cover it. I hear all too often that someone wants to be a CRNA just for the money and they have no other reason.
