It is my dream to one day work as a CRNA. What are some suggestions you guys have to prepare myself for this career field. I understand it takes a solid foundation in critical-care nursing before you are even able to apply to most CRNA programs. I plan to work in an ICU within the next few years to gain experience in this area of nursing.
For those of you who are following a similar path, are currently in CRNA school, or are established nurse anesthetists already, what are your suggestions? Any advice on challenges you experienced, certifications to get, programs to look into, things to study, classes to take (or retake) to improve chances of getting accepted to CRNA school?
