Beyond The Mask: Innovation & Opportunities For CRNAs

A CRNA’s Move to State Politics After Four Decades in Healthcare


Listen Later

Sometimes opportunities arise where you least expect them and that’s the situation Keith Denning, CRNA found himself in last year when he became a member of the Connecticut House of Representatives. Together with co-host Tracy Castleman, DNP, CRNA, APN-A, FAANA, we will learn all about his journey from the operating room to an important position in state politics. It might not have been his intention, but Keith is trying to take full advantage of his opportunity to make a positive impact.

 

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

  • Why he made the move to politics after a long career as a CRNA.
  • How to find the information you need about your state when you run.
  • The story of how he didn’t meet pushback until he got to the legislature and introduced a bill.
  • The push for full practice authority in Connecticut.
  • What he’s learned about politics and how to get a bill passed.
  • Which CRNA skills best translate to political positions?
