I am 40 years old, and I have just began my prerequisites to become an RN. My end is to become a crna. I’m hoping that it’s not too late in life for me but I remain optimistic.

It’s never too late! Wishing you the most luck and blessings in all of your future endeavors. You got this!!!❤️
I’m about to graduate my ADN program in may and am seriously considering pursuing a CRNA degree once I graduate, get my BSN, and get some ICU experience. It’s a long, difficult road to pursue but your videos are so educational & inspirational!! The more I watch your videos and research info about a CRNAs work life the more pumped I get about wanting to become one myself. Thanks for all the work you do!!! ❤️❤️

Go for it girl! Your right it’s a long journey but SO WORTH IT!
I am 27 and I'm doing some serious life changes. I think I am going to pursue nursing with an end goal of earning my CRNA I feel a little old to start such a long journey, but I don't have a large ego I just want to do something that isn't going put me in the same position as my parents and actually lets me live a life. Filling an important role while doing so isn't a bad bonus either lol.

Love this video, thank you for charing your life experience as a CRNA, it is so inspiring, best wishes to you and your family.
Preachin' to the choir sister! I am a NP and one of the main reasons for making this transition was so I could be more present with my family and not have to stress so much about things like money, time, etc. Love the balance that being an advance practice provider affords me! And spot on with the solid partner...100% the best! Thanks for the snippet of your life, looks like it was a great day!
SMART AND VERY SMART.Girl i couldn't do it,hats off to you Doctor!
Love the videos, and I appreciate the encouragement!
Hello! First timer here! I love the way you explain every detail in the OR when it comes to anesthesia. I’m a nurse in the OR and hopefully some day a CRNA. Great vid and God bless!

Great personality! I also love your scrub caps. I am doing FNP program but I am feeling like it's not what I really want. Thank you for taking us with you this really helps.I don't have much OR experience, about 4 years ICU so just considering some options.
Loving all your videos
I’m wanting to choose this path so bad.. I’m struggling to barely get my basics done for nursing as a single mama of 3! I’m hoping I learn structure etc to push through & level up for myself & kiddos! You rock ❤️
Hi Sarah I just love your channel and will definitely go follow you on Instagram. Your so inspiring and such a love of life kind of gal that I love. I just had my eye removed due to a genetic eye disorder and had put up with extreme pain in it due to 3 cornea transplants failing and the eye perforated. When I woke up they had put a block in and I felt incredible. After 3 years of horrific pain I was feeling awesome. At exactly 8 hours omg the pain was intense as soon as the block wore off wow. But to have those 8 hours gave me the courage because I hoped it would be heaps better once healed. And it has been. Best decision I have ever made. Totally pain free now and feeling like a new person. Thanks again for the great vlogs your awesome. Loads of love Leisa Western Australia xxxxxxx

My moms boyfriend is a CRNA he makes about $275k a year. They don’t just put you under their experts in airways as well. Usually when a doctor can’t get it the CRNA can.

What do your shifts usually look like? Do you ever get these crazy long shifts like some other professions in emergency rooms or is it pretty regular?
I love the scrub cap! Where did you get it?
Where did you find that scrub hat?? I love it!!
do you have to check vitals? is a stethoscope necessary for CRNA?
I am a current highschool student researching different career paths to go down after graduation. This career has really caught my attention and seems like a potential good fit for me. To be a CRNA I know you said the hours differ but do you know if it’s possible to be a crna but not have to be on call ? I wouldn’t want crazy hours just a simple 8 hour shift lol
Hey my names Chloe! I graduate nursing school in May and am highly interest in becoming a CNRA. I would like to job shadow a CRNA before I decide on if I want to work in the ICU. Do you have any tips on how to find job shadowing opportunities with a CRNA?
Hello, I have a question about the DNP(doctor of nursing).what they can do in the hospital?,are they same doctors, can issue own prescriptions and what is the path to be a CRNA . Please explain. Can you give me a reply please .I'm a student of studying science streem.
Hey! I’m very interested in trying to gain experience in regional anesthesia so I can have that skill set if I end up working in an autonomous environment. Did you gain the bulk of your “hands on” experience in clinical rotations or did you attend regional block seminars? Thanks for the video!

Hi! Where did you go for CRNA school?
Are you salary based? Or is it a case by case? I’m interested in CRNA. Currently in Indiana and thinking about Marian. I’m interested to know more about the work life balance. Also… what would happen if I became pregnant in CRNA school? 😅 I have an IUD but always wondered this. Would they let me graduate with the next class and take a break? Do they make you get right back to it the day after delivery like nursing school? lol
Hope you can stay awake during those carpal tunnels. The CRNA's at my hospital have it hard. They got new chairs but they didn't have a cup holder or magazine rack. Can I get you a lead apron for that C-Arm case you knew about in the morning?
Hey! I’m a CRNA in North Carolina and beginning to do blocks. I saw on another video you mentioned on PNBSchool . Is that on KZread or a website. I couldn’t seem to find it . Thank you

So i know one of the things you enjoy you said was your autonomy, but i was looking at a map where crnas practice independently and indiana wasn't one of them. (I could be completely wrong about you living in indiana but i thought you said that, lol.) So how does that work? Cause tennessee is the same way and I want to be completely autonomous. I mean i'll move to NC or something if I have to, just wondering how that works?

I’ve seen that it isn’t harder than med school
Studies show that anything more than 4mg of decadron in a peripheral block does not increase density of the block. The side effects of increased blood glucose is greater than the benefit of the block. So I wouldn’t add more than 4mg in a single block.
Hello! Wonderful video to be honest. It didn't feel hyper clinical; you've got a nice environment in there. It might sound wild but... I am a Frontend Developer and I am open to a career shift. I've heard CRNA can be super lucrative (200K$/year). I'm considering a fast track into the field. Do you think that is possible or there are programs suited for professionals to have an speedy transition to this type of work? Is the wage compensation as good? & The work-life balance and work-engagement; how does it feel? If feels a lot more estable and in demand to me. Frontend Development is way too volatile and stressful for me at the moment. Last issue is that I am living in Spain, Europe; and I don't know why the salaries for this role in Europe are not nearly as high... What is your best advise? Thanks a Lot!!!
Very nice my Doctor 🌹
Hi! I’m finishing up my bsn , already working as a rn in CVICU/ICU/MICU and will be applying to CRNA school soon hopefully! Just curious did you go to CRNA when you had your children or after !? I have a 6 year old son and that’s the only little detail about it that makes me scared , I don’t want him to resent me

Hi!! I'm an RN with 5 yrs non-ICU experience, thanks for posting these types of videos!! I have a quick question... I'm exploring this field because I've always thought it would be interesting, but I've been intimidated as well. Why, would you say, is it that they want ICU experience? Is it more because you need the critical care knowledge (equipment, drugs, maybe mechanics of intubation/ventilator) or because the job itself has a similar dynamic to ICU bedside (rigorous charting, extremely detailed results etc.)? Or both? I would not be excited about doing ICU, but I believe I would be excited about anesthesia. Any help would be greatly appreciated, sorry for the long comment!!

@@iKazed Really there is no comparison, ICU RN vs CRNA. A CRNA does everything an anesthesiologist does, so do you think an ICU RN is more stressed than an anesthesiologist? If hell breaks out for the ICU RN they call for help or a code and RNs and MDs come running, but if hell breaks out for anesthesiologist or CRNA, they call call for help but they may not receive it as fast. They have to pilot that plane.

@@soonerdaddy Ok...? There is still a team of professionals available to help within their scope. But crashes are not great events to base average job expectations on as they are not a regular occurrence. When it comes to a DAY TO DAY life for a CRNA vs ICU RN surely there is benefits to dramatically increased pay, more schedule stability, increased autonomy (and therefore potential satisfaction), and respect. Having more responsibilities obviously comes with more stress, but that stress can be more easily managed when considering the circumstances and environment of the position worked. CRNA as presented by even Ms. Wild seems to be a lot more stable and pays off well in both financial and personally satisfactory ways. I'll take the increased stress that comes with increased autonomous responsibility unless you come up with a more compelling, day to day example of how stressful being a CRNA is.
now i am a nursing student. can i become a CRNA after finishing Masters in anesthesia ?

once you get your bsn the most common path is to get icu experience then follow the path to get your masters
Good not to use the term “my surgeon”. It’s a collaborative practice. The surgeon isn’t my boss. We work tomorrow. Also anesthesia plan is up to the CRNA. The surgeon might have a preference but the final call is the CRNAs call.
Hi . I come from Vietnam. I am also a nurse anesthetist like you. Can I ask for information to contact you? Can I chat and ask you about anesthesia in your country?
Is there a lot of math required to become a crna?
