Need to shadow a CRNA

futrarmyCRNA · Dec 2, 2008

Very motiviated and interested nurse working in A ICU in the Bronx is looking to shadow a CRNA in NYC or CT area please. I have both CT and NY RN licences.:bowingpur:bow::nurse:

I just approached one of them at the hospital I worked at and asked if I could. Told them I was interested in CRNA and needed to do a school paper, etc. They will more than likely be more than happy to help as they had to do the same thing. All of them I met were glowing about their jobs and loved the company.

Yeah, I am also interested in this field, but I wanted to shadow one just to make sure I will really enjoy the work, but it is hard to find one to shadow. The hospitals I live around don't let me...it is just volunteering. I used to shadow doctors at Plainview, but they only allow volunteers in the ER. I don't know any CRNA either.

I guess I'll just keep looking around. :typing lol

You can check with private anesthesia groups also as they have their own offices. Most CRNA's love to share their love of their professions. But due to HIPAA (privacy) regulations, it is probably very hard for a non-employee to see and follow a surgery of a patient.
