The September 2017 AANA News Bulletin contains an article I wrote titled:  SRNAs – Key Tips for Transitioning to Practice.

The article builds on podcast #25 – Transitioning to Practice that I put out back in February 2016.  In the article I discuss tips for the last six months of anesthesia school including tips for mastering boards, the transition out of school and the first six months of practice.

This podcast pairs with the AANA News Bulletin article providing additional insights and stories to help SRNAs and new grad CRNAs make the transition smooth and begin to set goals for the next season of life.
