  1. RRNA or SRNA for title, What is your opinion?

    TexasCCRN replied to TexasCCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    TexasCCRN replied to TexasCCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I do like the comment about being a member of the anesthesia team. However we do need to continue to educate patients that not only doctors do a residency. These are the battles that we need to...

    TexasCCRN replied to TexasCCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  14. Next step - what should it be?

    TexasCCRN replied to New CCU RN's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA
