Drug addicts, prisoners, abusers, the list goes on…you name it we take care of them. Not only do we take an oath to give everyone equal treatment, it’s not my job to judge…if it was, there are equally difficult if not harder situations that have nothing to do with someone being a convicted felon. #crna #nurseanesthestist #nursetok #nursesoftiktok #medical #foryoupage #trending #trendingvideo

Replying to @leaf3.3 🍓🍓🍓 love all my strawberry besties out there! We anticipate that no one acts the same under anesthesia, there’s always so many variables that keep us all different. ♥️#crna #anesthesia #knowledge #facts #LearnOnTikTok #learn #nurseanesthestist #redhead #surgerytiktok #surgery #DIY

Ive been a CRNA for almost 10 years…CRNA= certified registered nurse anesthetist. My scope of practice is the SAME as anesthesiologist, (within the anesthesia realm)…. I do epidurals, central lines, choose your entire anesthetic, I’m in the OR the whole time and can work independently from an anesthesiologist (do not require an MD supervision). I’ve avoided this topic and post for 2 years bc it’s a political topic and I’m not here for hate or to hurt feelings. I love my job and I’m proud of it. If you chose one of the other careers, be proud of that and dont be bothered by statements below. You’ve asked my thoughts so here you go. MORE BELOW. I chose CRNA for a variety of reasons. First, I would simply never want to be anyone’s assistant or be dependent on someone else’s skill set in case of an emergency (in a line of work when SECONDS COUNT) = AAs. If I was going to school I wanted to be trained in EVERYRTHING and come out independent and completely competent in ALL areas. I also SIMPLY wanted to be the one IN THE OPERATING ROOM choosing & giving drugs (giving the anesthesia), most places in the US even when a MDA is around they are supervising several and not the ones in the operating room. I would never find myself in such a place as an AA. AAs are beholden to anesthesiologists and therefore limited in terms of practice setting/location and schedule. 🔥THEY CANT WORK IN EVERY STATE… and even in the states they are allowed to, certain facilities don’t even allow them 🫣 I value the direct patient care experience that CRNAs are REQUIRED to have (AAs don’t need any direct pt care for school…it doesn’t mean some don’t have it, but I didn’t want to be grouped under a title where people assumed I wouldn’t have it) and I truly believe our backgrounds alone (ICU and any other in patient clinical care) make us superior providers. ♥️🔥there is no difference in the scope of practice of an anesthesiologist and a CRNA within the anesthesia realm. NONE. so why not choose the one with a better schedule, and the one giving the anesthesia…fits my personality better to do all the skills I went to school for, not watch others do it for me. - AAs can only practice in approx 20 states, ALWAYS medically directed by an Anesthesiologist. CRNAs are not. -Any degree can get someone into AA school, and no prior patient care experience is needed. SCARY. -AAs are trained to be DEPENDENT on an anesthesiologist (their assistant). ‼️AAs are providers WHO CAN ONLY TAKE delegated orders from an ANESTHESIOLOGIST‼️. I did not go to school for someone to do the thinking for me, I wanted autonomy and an actual skill set; I wanted to know just as much if not more than the other providers around me, not the other way around. -A new grad AA has nowhere near the experience of a new grad CRNA. AAs struggle with critical ICU patients on pressors, unlike most CRNAs with an ICU background. There’s rotten eggs in every line of work, but why would I go in to a stressful line of work and come out under prepared and dependent on someone else’s skills set not even required to be in the room with me the whole time while caring for someone else’s loved one 😳 -CRNAs can be business owners, open ketamine clinics, open aesthetic centers, bill cash pay for plastics, do mobile dental, teach in universities, deploy for the military, go on medical missions independently…the opportunities are endless …not limited. I refuse to be limited. The end. I also love to point out that CRNAs have a proven track record of providing safe and effective anesthesia for over 150 years in this country and our trusted as the primary providers in our military and rural hospitals (our worth is undisputed). Opinions are my own not my places of employment. Obviously. #crna #nursesoftiktok #nurseanesthestist #anesthesia #medicine #medical #surgerytiktok #trending #foryoupage #knowledge

Replying to @madquinngray a small drop in your BP is to be anticipated… but if it tanks too much and left untreated it can effect baby. But thats why youre closely monitored and its easily treated with meds we keep on us.

Replying to @laurahelenwilson11 Things happens so quickly in L&D…ive seen it all and will always advocate for birthing in the hospital… but also fully support those that come in and want minimal medical intervention…but at least we are close by.

I can make you pasta or rice… whatcha want 🤣 I DESPISE COOKING #crna #nursesoftiktok #nursetok #medicaltiktok #medical #medicalhumor #nurseanesthestist #humor #foryoupage
