The Future of Nurse Anesthesia…

Begins with a strategic plan to mentor and provide early professional socialization to historically excluded nurses of color with diverse CRNAs at Diversity CRNA Information Session & Airway Simulation Lab Workshop Events across the country.

We hosted 66 Diversity CRNA Workshop Event and marginalized critical care nurses have since graduated from these fine nurse anesthesia programs and are now delivering anesthesia:
