Intentionally bring together a movement of RNs, Program Directors & Faculty, CRNAs, and SRNAs critical to diversify a the nurse anesthesia profession, face to face…
 
Diversity CRNA 2024 Information Session & Airway Simulation Lab Workshops accomplished this with five filled to capacity events.
 
Early professional socialization of four Nurse Anesthesia Program Directors & marginalized ICU RNs.
 
Real talk.
 
Thank you to the Nurse Anesthesia Program Directors, CRNAs, and SRNAs for responding to questions from historically excluded ICU nurses of color interested in applying to Nurse Anesthesia Programs
 
Now, these marginalized nurses can write about their immersive experience in personal statement for nurse anesthesia admission consideration and articulate it during invited interview.
 
This is how you change the face & culture of Nurse Anesthesia. Intentionally.

Facts: Out of a 65K CRNA Workforce, only 4% are Black CRNAs, 4% Hispanic CRNAs, 3% Asian CRNAs & 0.7% Indigenous CRNAs
 
Repeat after me... I will be a CRNA!
