Beyond The Mask: Innovation & Opportunities For CRNAs

Influence in Anesthesia with Kevin Smith, CRNA


Listen Later

Today we are going to discuss the uncertainties surrounding healthcare restructuring and why it’s critical for anesthesia to play an influential role moving forward. We’re excited to do that with guest host Angela Mund, DNP, CRNA, and Kevin Smith, MBA, CRNA, MSN, APRN of North American Partners in Anesthesia. We’ll have a roundtable discussion about where the anesthesia profession is headed and how CRNAs can create influence at local levels. 

 

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

  • Why he feels like there’s no real influencer in the healthcare industry.
  • The role that anesthesia plays in healthcare and what we have to do to take a seat at the table.
  • His fears about healthcare restructuring and where we’re headed.
  • Why it’s important for there to be positive messaging on the ground to offset the negative associated with many CRNAs leaving institutions.
  • What can we do to prepare graduates to work with companies like NAPA to create influence?
  • How social policy plays into current legislation.
