    yoga crna replied to marilynmom's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    yoga crna replied to rachel h's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  4. malpractice insurance

    yoga crna replied to rachel h's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  9. Becoming a CRNA - From One Who Did It

    yoga crna replied to kmchugh's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Bored in anesthesia--yes and I love it when I am. I just finished a 9 hour case today. I was not bored when I couldn't intubate the patient. With some excellent assistance, luck and a lot of skill...

  10. Becoming a CRNA - From One Who Did It

    yoga crna replied to kmchugh's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA
