How are CRNA's in your area teated during Nurses week, Nurses Day??
I have cards for the other nurses I work with and was going to give them to the CRNA's also. What do you all think? Sometimes I get the feeling they don't look at themselves as "nurses" but only as "CRNA's"
What would you think of a Happy Nurses Day card?
Thanks,
lowly plain old RN,

They're still nurses, and I think would appreciate a card or might feel left out!

It's funny, at my facility the MDA's really almost enjoy calling us nurses and downplaying our anesthesia knowledge, but did nothing for us for nurses week. We are all nurses - Certified REGISTERED NURSE Anesthetist - and most of us pride ourselves on the nursing care we give to anesthetized patients. So, I would have loved to be recognized too, but the fulfillment I get from my career is more than enough.
