If there are any Wisconsin CRNAs here, or other CRNAs in other states that can shed some light on this situation... I need an explanation! :uhoh21:
I'm soon to be a nursing student in Milwaukee this fall. I called Aurora Sinai Hospital for shadowing experiences of a CRNA. The lady I talked to said that Sinai no longer "uses" nurse anesthetists, nor does St. Francis and another Aurora hospital in the area!
I'm confused, how can THREE hospitals in one city NOT "use" nurse anesthetists? Has anyone else experienced this? Could I have NOT fully understand what the lady was saying? The only thing I could think of is that they don't do surgeries or use some other type of anesthesia provider (AAs or something).
What do you all think?
