CRNA or Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist

A nurse anesthetist earns a standard of over $100,000 a year. To become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist or CRNA, you have to require advance studies in addition to your nursing degree. If you are already a registered nurse, you will have to complete a graduate degree program and pass an examination to be a licensed nurse anesthetist. One of the main responsibilities of a nurse anesthetist is delivering anesthesia during surgery and works with an anesthesiologist. It is an perfect choice for those who are less prepared to patient interaction because patients will be unconscious most of the time and are more engaged in technical skills or surgery. This demands a more impersonal role in contrast to most nursing duties particularly since you are unlikely to find the same patient twice in the surgical field.
