Jenny Schmitt, MS, CRNA, APRN, brings many years of state advocacy experience with @OANACRNAs, to the latest Moving the Needle episode to discuss the importance of state advocacy efforts for both urban and rural CRNAS. 🎙Start Listening: bit.ly/3qkwHtP

FANA President, Dr. John McDonough, performing a successful L4-5 transforaminal injection under fluoroscopic guidance, as part of his post-doc fellowship in Advanced Pain Management at the USF CAMLS facility.

Nurse anesthetists have been the backbone of anesthesia delivery in the U.S. since the Civil War and should be able to practice to the full extent of their education and training!

As healthcare costs continue to increase and access to care remains a struggle, CRNAs are a clear solution to Florida’s healthcare challenges––due to cost effectiveness for patients/healthcare facilities and the ability to provide essential care to underserved communities.

@FLCRNA @CrnaTxANA Great job florida!

Congratulations to @CrnaTxANA for winning the AANA Award for Excellence in State Government Relations Advocacy! As a 2020 recipient, your FANA colleagues applaud your dedication and hard work.

@FLCRNA Florida physicians get schooled once again by Dr. McDonough! Love it!

CRNAs can breathe a sigh of relief. Session has ended and attempts to strip CRNAs from using nurse anesthesiologist in their title have been defeated. CRNAs are highly trained experts in anesthesiology. Thank you members for your support.

As highly educated, advanced practice registered nurses, CRNAs improve access to safe and affordable anesthesia care in an overloaded healthcare system. Tell your legislator to support HB111 & SB424: bit.ly/2NVCg35.

YES!

Yesss!

Independent Nurse Anesthesiologist!!

@aanacrna @OANACRNAs Great job. Quality of care is higher and much better as independent Nurse Anesthesiologist! Way to free yourself from supervision of money hungry physician Anesthesiologist!

"Oklahoma recognizes the critical need to ensure our state can provide care to every citizen at all times, not just during the Covid-19 pandemic,” said Jenny Schmitt, MS, CRNA, APRN, immediate past president of the Oklahoma Association of Nurse Anesthetists (@OANACRNAs) #CRNASafe

@CombatCrna @BlogAnesthesia @USAP_Updates @BlogAnesthesia how are the Nurse Anesthesiologist used at that facility? Are they restricted? Or are they allowed to practice as independent nurse anesthesiologist at the top of their scope?

@BlogAnesthesia @USAP_Updates Are you serious? What are you going to do about it???

AANA supports the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services in identifying and eliminating barriers that prevent non-physician providers from practicing at their full scope. Read the update here: bit.ly/2BJw33F

Sharon Pearce, CRNA, MSN, was featured in @ELLEmagazine about her political campaign, which inspired her @Yale Doctoral project to train other nurses to run for office. bit.ly/3fWX96c
